need to know what I need for a 11.99 or better I was pretty sure that I need a helmet, roll cage, and a scatter shield, is this all I need?

 

I think a fire extinguisher as well

 

I believe also a fireproof race jacket. Could be more.
If I remember correctly if you goto nhra.com they have a rulebook you can download in pdf format.

 

If I remember right you only need a cage if you run 11.49 or quicker or am I mistaken? I know you need a scatter sheild for 11.99 or faster and a helmet for 13.99 or faster.

 

go to the nhra site, you can print the entire rulebook , or just download it . i got mine on my pc desktop. its alot of reading though. but well worth it .

Always bring the handbook around with you when your race. From my expereince, many tracks will be biased against your car because its an import or they just want to bust your ***** for no reason. Different tracks have some different rules but most of them are very similiar. Good luck

 

IHRA tracks are 11.49.....you need a 6 point cage.
NHRA tracks are 11.99.....you need a 6 point cage.

NHRA calls for a license and chassis certification at 135mph.

i think IHRA is license and certification at 9.99. not sure.

Fire extinguisher not needed. A fire extinguisher system is needed when going 8's.

 

put the extinguisher in the a pillar so you could be a stunna ricer racer.

 

hittin 11's? i don't think you would be considered a ricer

 

My little brother hits 12s and I kind of consider him a ricer. He doesnt even know how to change his oil. Anyone who wants to run faster than their knowledge can take them, is a ricer.

 

hahaha... *sigh*

 

wish I hit 12's
