NHRA Regs..

B0B · January 5th, 2009, 09:42 PM

so, i'm going to be taking my car to the track this year. for all the guys here running 11.99 and faster, what saftey stuff are you required to have?

i just read on NHRA's website you need:

4 point roll bar
5 point racing harness
driveshaft hoop
scatter shield
battery cutoff
battery hold down

and a few other things..

are you guys running this stuff? are they pretty strict about the regs?

That was changed to 11.49 several years ago. I doubt you'll be effected

As long as you don't get too crazy you'll be fine. Just bring a helmet....they like to see you wearing a helmet
