i have a car that has a full cage but dose not run the times to need a window net but do i have to onstall it.

 

no

 

I think a full cage car has to have a window net, reguardless of times.

 

haha, why would that be? If you don't have to have a cage, why would you have to have a window net?

are you kidding me right now

 

remove the cage and you might run the times to need a net. LOL

 

Whats going on in here.Put a net ,take the cage out,leave the cage in,dont put a net.

 

if its not required yet, you dont need it. like wearing a helmet running mid 15's.

 

A net is required if you have a full cage anyways regardless of ET

 

So if you have a 15 sec. car with a full cage, it's not legal to run w/o a window net?

 

Might as well throw A chute on there to....to make it legal,lol

As far as I know....yes. I thought this was in the NHRA rulebook. Unless something has changed in the last few years. Am I wrong??

 

I just found it. The rule states as follows

6:3 Window Net

A ribbon-type or SFI Spec 27.1 mesh-type window net is mandatory on any car required by the rules to have a roll cage.

Window net has nothing to due with ET

yeah, but having a cage does, so if your car doest run an ET thats nessesary to have a cage, you dont need a net

 

Depends on the tech inspector. I have been told before that I needed to run my net regardless of ET (or mph) because I had a full cage. I've also made many, many, runs without my net. It just depends on who's looking. Kinda like D-bars...

The orginal poster of this thread didn't say anything about ET. He said he has a cage, but doesn't run the ET/MPH needed for a net. I think he is confused, I was just stating what the rule says, not my personal opinion. Assuming that his car is fast enough for the cage, it is required to have a window net.
