I have a 6 2" driver looking for a pavement midget chassis with a cage that is tall enough,
any chassis brands out there that fit someone this size without having to add a Halo ?
Thanks

How low the seat is mounted seems to have as much to do with fit as how "tall" the top of the cage is. My driver is a few inches shorter than you, but we have the same issue/concerns about clearance. Seat angle also plays a part. You almost have to sit in them (with your seat) to know for sure.

Beast has made pavement midget chassis for tall drivers in the past. I’m sure if you contacted them they would be able to accommodate whatever you need. You may even get lucky and find a used one with a tall cage that someone is willing to sell.
