If you’re looking at the image thumbnail , don’t worry. It gets worse.

I found the problem; the co-driver was speaking gibberish!

Wow that cage took it hard.  Glad they’re OK

Between the missing door, the driver’s leg, and the roof splitting on the co-driver side there’s a lot of very bad things going on there

Is it wrong to want a cage like that in my daily driver?

I always find it interesting that in the middle of my OMG moments, my hand hits the stalk and the wiper turns on. It’s always  annoying when you are videotaping your race and thinking right, I am upside down and airborn and the wipers are on during a dry day.....

Nah, the apparent roof splitting is normal. It’s a Peugot 208 - the roof panel isn’t structural and loosely coupled . Assuming they started from a GT or GTI, there used to be a panoramic sunroof there.

Except that part of the prep when building a rally car is welding all the body seams to keep dust out

I guess I missed the part where tack welding light gauge sheet and rough epoxying fiberglass magically made it structural! And the FIA ruling where body panels extraneous to crash structure were not allowed to deform in a crash!

Pictured: stock 208 GTI.

You also missed the part where the panoramic sunroof only comes on the GTI Prestige, not the standard GTI.

Did... Did that cage collapse?
