I don't understand what you meant. If you have a car that is slower than 11.5 but has a 10 pt cage it needs a chassis cert?

When did the NHRA chassis certification rule come into effect for cars going faster than 10 seconds? Early 90s? How fast could you go without one back then?
I'm thinking mid or late 1970s Call them and get the straight scoop, if anyone who works there now remembers that far back As far as how fast could you go, it was as fast as you could go There where many top Fuel cars in the old days, some where built good, some where not Lots of junk made passes at many drag strips in the old days, some still do

I think he asking when the cert rules were put into effect, thats how I read it.
Yes, suppose you had a car that went 9s when did the NHRA require a cert for the chassis/cage. I thought it was in the early 90s? I am wondering about sportsman not the pro catagories.

I believe the Chassis certification rule was put in place for the 91 season, our cage was not certified in 90, had to have a couple bars in my SS Cuda replaced in order for it to certify for the 91 season.

Thanks. That is what I was looking for. So how fast could you go before 1991 without a cert or license? 8.50s?
