Are they supposed to be checking for something else?

Safety belts
Scatter shield (4-speed)
Roll bar or cage (bar >= 10.00; cage <10.00)
Driveshaft loop
Driver's jacket
... and the list gets longer as the car gets faster

Or are you running at an "outlaw" track that doesn't really bother w/ tech inspection per the NHRA/IHRA rules?


Nice build but I have been racing a long time seen lots of stuff. Just because you race on the street or an outlaw track, don't skip the safety stuff. One thing about trying to put that much HP on the street is you are usually very close to spinning the tires at a lot of MPH. Bad things can happen. And TV show or not those street racers have had a lot of wrecks the past few years both on and off the track, couple got killed. So be safe. And if done correctly a good roll cage will stiffen the car and make it go faster, done that myself several times.


Gentlemen....11.50 tops! Looking for 88mph in the 1/8th
