Hey guys.. i'm really starting to move along with my car & i like to use it on the street to cruise around on the weekends.. i'd say that the weekend street driving is my main use of the car & it only sees the track about 6 times durring the summer. Problem is (if u wanna call it a problem!) it's gotten a lot faster and i wanna know what the restrictions are with just a basic roll bar. I'd rather not go with a full cage due to the amount of street use & pain in the *** that it would cause, i did some searching but didn't really find what i was lookin for. I figured maybe some of you more experienced & serious racers might have some answers for me.

TIA

 

10.00 - 11.49 roll bar
9.99 or quicker/ or 135 mph or faster roll cage

 

it's 135 mph what is your mph. turbo car have hight mph's

No prob.

 

I went mid 10's all last year without any cage/bar. Most tracks arent gonnna kick you out if you at least have a roll bar.

for the most part yes, on a test and tune night or a street night. depends on how far under you are. i have seen people go 9.50's w/o a comp lisc, but the driver had all safety gear, but i have also been booted out of cecil county when the bar rule was 11.99 with my t type.

it depends on who what when and where.

i dont think youll have an issue with the 6pt bar.

 

Im in the 10.1s and got kicked off but U need at least a 6 point NHRA certified cage.3 layer SFI fire jacket.5 point seat belt harness SFI approved.Extended wheel studs on your front hubs.Scatter shield over your tranny.If your battery is in the back,It has to be covered with an aluminum case and a battery cut off switch on the back of the car.And an 95A certified racing helmet.Good luck bro,Darrell

nicely said big D and nice to see you on here...

 

What about, say, an AutoPower roll bar if you're in the low 11's? Do any of you get away with running that setup?

I went to the track with a friend who had the autopower in it and they wouldn't tech him for lower than 11.49's

 

Hey,If U need the parts at a good price,I recommed Camp 1320,They will ship to your door step and also,Thomas the owner works and tech inspecs for NHRA and he has the rule book and would give U more specific details on what U need next.Trust me,He hooks it up fat bro,ttyl and good luck on your nice project.Darrell

 

Hey Thomas,Thanx for the Bad *** shop party.The food was good and all the DJs kicked ***.That was fun.I ran into some of our OG old skool racers from back in the day. TTyl Bro,Darrell

 

first off if your really into drag racing then turn it into a fully drag and get another commuter, best way to go. beside you wouldn't have to worry much about breaking down which basicly you will have no ride to work so less hassle but a lot of money spent about the same if you really think about it.
