    WTB Raven Performance Cage

    John at Raven has stopped replying to emails, and the number at Raven has been busy for the last month. I think they are no longer in business.

    Looking to buy a used one now.

    Would need it shipped to Cali.

      I talked to him about 6(?) months ago, it seemed cost prohibitive for him, given he has to ship from Canada, and majority of his market is not local. Import fees, pallet fees, general shipping fees through the roof, extra fees for residential delivery, etc, buyers were shying away.

      That said, I don't know if he is done or just slow to respond during racing season and summer vacations.

        That's about the last time I talked to him too, maybe a bit longer. He said he was waiting on a shipment and then would have more ready in a few weeks

        Life got in the way, and I didn't reach out until about a month ago.

        Multiple emails went unanswered over weeks, and I've called sporadically and I just get a busy signal.

        I kinda got the same feeling last time we talked, that his heart wasn't really into it anymore. So I wasn't super surprised when I was unable to contact him.

        Hopefully you're right and he's just on a break

          I had the same situation happen to me about a year ago. He said he would have some in stock in a week or so. Then went radio silent when I said I wanted to order and shipping to USA.

          I was able to scoop one up off of here. So be patient and one may event pop up!

                  That would be amazing, I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering.

                    I'll swing by their shop when I have some time and will report back.

                          Im interested in this as well. I bought a 4 point harness and have been researching for harness guide bars (since will use shoulder bolt-in mounts to the oem rear seatbelt holes), but a surprising lack of harness mounting options for our chassis has me now looking at a half cage for my dual purpose car :/ Raven’s looked like a great option (especially since it’s about same price as BK’s harness mounting bar that strangely i havent seen any pics of anywhere), but yeah bummer Raven isnt responding now

                              Update: I went to the address posted on their website, and there's nothing there. It's now an indoor basketball place. Seems like Raven Performance is no longer in business.
