Most of the different organizations have rules about what you can/can't
do with cages. The problem is that some tracks don't follow them. Some
just sort of look in the door and see if there is something that looks
like a cage and call it OK...  Not a good thing but when they are self
regulated it makes it hard to make them change, until something bad
happens to force a change.
