Cleared for another 2 years (NHRA Medical)

Cleared for another 2 years (NHRA Medical) - 08/02/11 05:00 AM

That was a fast two years.....had to get the bi-annual physical today. Everything was good so I guess I have to button my car up and take it back out. Hopefully get some passes on everything and get it dialed in before the Monster Mopar race.

I try not to look at it negatively since it actually forces me to go to the doctor. Maybe detecting something early on that I would normally put off.

I agree, not a bad deal especially for me since it's free. Better safe than sorry. Now the belt and sticker deals....grrrrr..

I'm with ya on the belts as well as several other SFI items with short expiration's. I would love to know what SFI's criteria is for establishing the expiration dates. Has to be something like 2% failure under the most abusive conditions (conditions most of us never put our components thru).

Glad you checked out o.k.,Brian!! Some of this SFI stuff has gotten out of hand! That is why I decided if I keep my car,it will never be quicker than low tens..

I hear ya Ted, but quicker is a good rush. I know alot of people that have a blast (low cost/low maint) that run 10's and 11's though. I figure I will run something slower when I can no longer pass the physical for the liscense.
