Is there a way to disable the system and see if the rich running goes away?  I think mine is disabled, at least I thought it was.

Hey,
I am sort of working parallel paths on this at the moment.  The gent who posted the above Gt2 video is working on a cage design for his track car.  I may have his cage fabrcator make a copy for me when he builds his cage.  Assuming the designer and fabricator are willing and everything went perfectly.
I also have a cage/chassis fabricator a couple of hours from me that has looked at my car and the photos and may be able to take on a custom solution In December.
My plan is for the bolt in solution I use to be "inspired by" the X180R cage - but using modern bolted joints and possibly some smaller bars in some areas so its less intrusive in the cockpit.  The solution I am planning will retain most of the interior and be "streetable".  The version I am planning now will have the main hoop inside the cockpit and not in the engine compartment as i was considering at one time (see above).
Also, Lotus Bits did come up with a workable proposal for a near exact copy of an X180R cage.  They have access to one of the original cars and the car was going to be in their shop (owner was willing).  They also have a bear shell,  they were going to design a cage off the original and send the bare shell to a cage specialist they work with.  They were prepared to make copies.  The cost was just out of my comfort zone before shipping.  If we could have found 4 or 5 people interested the cost would have come down but I was only able to find 2 or 3 people tentatively interested world wide.  I did not persue.
