Should I do my East Vs. West Promo talk? I dont think the East has what it takes this year to compete with the West. Maybe in years past, but not this year.

The vegas event was one of the first events where a west car won when an east coast car showed up (and even he made it to the final)

SFWD is going to have a lot of cars going for 16 spots if everyone shows up.

I hope to get able to run if Q16 myself there.

How strict is NHRA safety tech compared to NDRA and BOTI? I haven't made an NHRA event yet but the NDRA and BOTI tech inspectors didn't even look to see if I had a certified cage. I ran in T/S in NDRA and P/I in BOTI; I would be entering in SFWD in the NHRA event.

Tech inspectors didn't even open my hood at the BOTI event.

Sounds like your car is not legal by the way you're talking. I wouldn't bother going to an NHRA race with a car that won't pass tech. Make whatever changes necessary to make your car legal and then you'll be fine.
