Default wire-tucked ls-vtec(CMI)

I want to go time my car at Sacramento Raceway and I was reading through the NHRA rulebook online but I couldn't find info about wire tuck cars being prohibited. Does anyone have the info or email that I can reach the Sacramento Raceway officials at? I've tried getting their email from their website but my Outlook program isnt working so it doesn't give me an email address so I can just use my other email. Basically, I have a full wire tuck on my ls-vtec eg, with my battery relocated to the front driver side by the headlight (I got it that way...don't ask why it's like that LOL.). I know that the tech inspector guy is a *****. Last time, he almost didn't let me race because I only had 3 lug nuts on each rim. Sure, it's for safety reasons, but I put thousands of miles on it fine with just 3 lug nuts each. Also, would I need an ON/OFF switch for the battery since it is relocated? I had that same problem before by not having a switch when my battery was relocated to the trunk of my crx. Thanks in advance for any positive feedbacks.

as long as the battery is securely on, it should not be a problem. all race tracks make you have four lug nuts, if they let you run with three than that was a nice guy,

yeah. he let me race, but after i borrowed some lug nuts from another racer. well, it was only one of those wednesday night race, and not a NHRA sanctioned event so i thought that it shouldnt have been a big deal. anyone know anything about whether the full wire-tuck is prohibited or not???
