Ben is still on the case.. HOWEVER ... If this falls through we will see about perhaps a GB on option #2.. A GB would definatly help with keeping the prices down... WAY down..

But first lets see what Ben and bulletproof can get outta them..

Sorry for the delays. Our guy who is working on this is currently in Japan and wont be back for a couple of weeks. Here are the updates:

We can get the hard top. HOWEVER, it is not ready for regular use. THe reason why it is race team use only is because they have not yet made a version of the top that will install normally. The current top they make installs using points on a 7pt roll cage. From my understanding of the conversation that took place, to use this top you'd need a full 7pt roll cage and probably some custom fabrication to allow it to mount.

If someone still wants to do this, we can supply you with a Cusco or Safety 21 7pt cage and the top. It just seems like for the average S2000 owner, this solution is not adequate.

They have told us that they will make a new version that installs more conventionally for street use, but they have no idea of when they will release it (probably not soon).

Thats the update for now. I will continue to get more information. The info here was taken from an email sent to one of our employees from MoonCraft's chief engineer for their S2000 race project.

Pricing is not yet confirmed.

I'll inquire again, but last time it wasn't high on their priority list.
