Evil Genius Racing

I would have loved for this to be a good review. I have heard awesome things about EG from both around the web and from coworkers. It was a no brainer to go with them for a set of miata rollbars for myself and someone else as we had a track day coming up. John was a nice guy to talk to, and said it was no problem hitting the deadline as it was a good 20 days off before the track day, and he said the bars would be done in 10. I am now here, a month and a half later, out $ 900 with no roll bars and no way of reliably contacting John as to the whereabouts of my product (or a refund…). Look… its okay of personal issues come up, or that your suppliers screwed up. I, and i think most customers, would understand and put up with a delay, especially if its a shop like EG with stellar word of mouth reputation. What I can’t stand is simply the lack of communication, and the blatant lies about when things will be available. Disappearing for 2 weeks when you have customers’ products still waiting to be shipped is a surefire way of garnering some angry customers. Same with not answering phone calls and not answering emails. Oh, and stating you’ll have something shipped by a certain day, only to go completely incommunicado. John, if you ever read this… Its pretty simple, either ship the bars, or refund the money. I want to be able to say how awesome the bars are, not how much of a letdown the owner of the company was.

This is *THE* shop to go to for your custom roll cage /​race fabrication needs! I had EGR build my roll cage «rear half» + harness bar and install a race seat in my track-​prepped Integra.
I made the idiotic mistake of having the car restored and painted super well right before I decided to get the roll cage installed. EGR did a superb job installing everything — not a single scratch :)
I knew EGR was going to be the shop I’d take my car to after I met John Pagel, the owner. He explained things very well that I could understand them and I knew that this man knew what he was talking about.
As it turns out, my ChumpCar team’s Sentra had their cage done by EGR and I know quite a few know who’ve either had their cage done by EGR or speak of EGR very highly, including another race fabricator I met at the track.
Save your life, don’t get something like an AutoPower bolt-​in roll bar, get a proper custom roll cage at EGR! Life is priceless, good race safety equipment is very cheap compared to loss of life.

EGR built the cage for our Lemons miata. Top notch stuff.
One of their lemon’s crew also gave me a spectacular massage at the track. I highly recommended you take your car to this place! You won’t regret it
