Running quicker than the safety equipment allows is cause for disqualification at the discretion of the race director."

    You are good to go. No one even asked me last year at any track. Of course no one thinks my junk runs well enough to need a roll bar let alone a License or a cage cert. To quote the Irwindale tech guy last week when I pulled out the NHRA License with the tech card; " A License, you don't mean you need a License for this thing?"

    The first Drag Week I went to everyone wanted to know why I had so much Cage in a Small Bock N/A car....................

        Earlier this week I went to make my license passes and a guy comes over after I ran a full pass just on motor and goes "man the spray really wakes this thing up!" I said yeah? Wait till I open the bottle! Lol. Things are not always what they seem. Lol

                Not only will I get to go on a road trip.......I will get to see some fantastic looking cars that are so much more than just show.........part of me wants September to get here quick but the truth is, I need more time to get my buggy going. Great job on the cage can't wait to see it up close.

                  Cage looks great BUT how do you get by with no padding where your head/helmet will contact

                    There is padding on it now. I'm not so sure about you either don. Lol.

                      Cool
                      I know a lot of NHRA tracks dont accept the IHRA license but Hot Rod
                      must have made a deal with them based on the Hot Rod ruling... I
                      was in the same spot on the license(have a IHRA license and let my
                      NHRA license laps) and now I cant get the NHRA license due to health

                        Always a good thing to post to a forum. I'd take the rule for what is. HRM is paying the insurance so their rules. If you are going to bring a recent physician signed NHRA medical form you might as well bring six progressive signed time slips with the names of the NHRA License holders who signed them.

                          That interior is just perfect! Real street cars have working interior courtesy lights.

                            The rules are pretty clear, I did look them up on my own. I'd still like some sort of clarification from Hotrod.......Oh well. I just don't want any crap on tech day.

                              Jake, how was your NHRA outing? Did they honor your IHRA license?
