If my truck runs over 16's still and I have nitrous will I need to buy a Drivers Jacket?
thats funny cause at speedworld they didn't seem to care that Dunner went that fast without a roll cage :jester:white95 said:Ive been asked to leave from firebird and speedworld for going to fast with no rollcage. The offical at speedworld threw a NHRA rule book at me and said " dont come back till you read this"!!
actually it was 11.10ish ...and if he hit 10.99 (which was possible with tempertures dropping so fast) he would Have to have a roll cage or firebird could get in troublehlheavyd said:remember the track freaking out when dunner ran that 9.90 something with no roll cage.. that was kinda funny

Who knows exactly why they have to change the rules all the time. I guess the track has seen too many people catch their stuff on fire after modifying the fuel system?white95 said:it seems like they change the rules every year. So the import guys who use nitrous to run 15's now have to wear a fire jacket?
sweet....10's at truckin nats if it isn't too hot :huh:Duner said:Taken from Firebird's website:
As of February 1, 2006 all vehicles with an aftermarket power adder, (nitrous, turbocharger, or supercharger) will be required to wear an SFI approved fire jacket.
Yeah, the guys at Firebird got pretty excited about low 11s. Speedworld was very nice about it when the truck went into the 10's. Both tracks have become super-strict about the rules lately. (I'm sure it's an NHRA/insurance issue and they have to enforce the rules to keep the insurance) I was told not to return until I had the required safety equipment. I picked up the Lexan for my back window yesterday, so I can finish the truck up this week. I'll post up some pics of the rollbar install next week.
if i was running nitrous in a ricer to get 15's i'd just wear a bag over my head :huh: :jester:white95 said:So the import guys who use nitrous to run 15's now have to wear a fire jacket?
That's the goal. I just need to get my new huge intercooler welded together so the temps shouldn't matter all that much. (I hope)GoFastGray said:sweet....10's at truckin nats if it isn't too hot :huh:
