Pretty sure the rear panels have to be in.
All the front cab carpet.

ALL cars running 10.99 or quicker "Have to run a SFI approved Harmonic Balancer SFI 18.1".

The side panels need to be in and you have to have full carpet.
If you remove the rear seat you need to carpet under there as well...

You don't have to carpet where the rear seats were, at least we never have and it was never a problem. You do have to have the rear panels and front carpet though.

Yes it has to be stamped with honda motor company. jk. I am pretty sure any carpet will do.

But if you want a sure answer I would email pat in the NHRA tech department. pcvengros@nhra.com he is very good about getting back to you. Its better to get your answer directly from him because he is the final say.

FYI, they caught my glove box and told me I had to have it next race too. NHRA techs hard but you gotta thank them for that.

You might want to make sure all your lights and wipers work while we are on the subject. Trust me, they check everything! They have this list of stuff they check on their tech card and they go over everything. They even keep track of what saftly equipment you have and the manufactor and write it down on the tech card.
