No sequential in Hot Rod?

I was looking in the NHRA rule book for Hot Rod and it states that "Sequential transmisson prohibited" So does this mean no X-Trac?

I just read the rule book, it doesnt say that. I got it off of the website. You are right, a XTRAC is a sequential.

If it retains an H-pattern it should be legal even if it is clutchless

Re: (Garcia-Racing)

Sequentials not be allowed in hot rod sounds like a good idea. If you were in my position this sounds like a really good idea! (At least privateers know what I mean

You will have 25K in an Extract by the time you are done.

Re: (kobokie)

The Extract would only be allowed if it was on NHRA's list of accepted aftermarket trannys. If it is indeed a sequential trans, it should not be on their list.
