Hi all. I am preparing for the upcoming autocross season and I was wondering if anyone in the Raleigh area sells roll bar/cage padding. I just need a stick, maybe 2 for the miata.

I've got some extra, it's blue and NOT the SFI rated expensive stuff, just regular roll bar padding.

Pretty sure I can spare 1 stick, maybe 2 if you need that much.


Other than mail-order, maybe somewhere like Steve Ashworth performance in Fuquay would carry it (???)..

That's one thing Mark actually stocks for the track program. He should have some, but obviously call first.

If Mark is out of the padding, try Autosport Gallery in N. Raleigh.

Good Idea Art, Tom operates the business out of his house now, so he may have to order it. I'll check with him if Performance Chassis does not have it. I plan on getting in touch with Mark Cooper in the next week or so to mount this season's tires. I may have him check the alignment too. Does he have scales for corner weighting? Seems like I remember the club bought a set or at least was discussing it some years back.
