Been thinking of going but my car runs 9's and the cage has not been certified. Also, I do not have an engine diaper yet. How close do they tech during events like this. I am a little over 3 hours from the track and do not want to haul my car for nothing.
Its an NHRA track so I wouldn't count on it if it will run 9's. I know it stinks but safety 1st. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif)

The tech inspector "impounded" the out of date helmet of the guy in line next to me this morning. So make sure you're safety stuff is good to go. It would be a terrible thing if you oiled the track and crashed... the life you save may be your own-just saying

Thanks Guys, I quess that answers my question. I race in Canada and the NHRA tech guys are only in town a few times a year. I can get a short term inspection from my home track that would take care of the certifcation but the diapier issue will need to be addressed. With the drag link going through the oil pan and the headers hugging the block, the diapier will have to be custom made. I have already been in contact with Champion from Indy however, since the season is almost over I will make that a winter project.
They will not allow you to run in the nines without chassis cert. and license so if you can keep it in the 10's you will be fine. As far as the diaper goes, you can call them as I believe they require it for Sunday points racing and on Saturdays for T&T, it is not required. You can call the track for verification.

I made it out there about three quarters of the way and turned back once the drizzles came. Miserable day on the road with both my boys and nothing to see.
Better then going to MIR for a rain out. lol ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hammer.gif)

So far weather is looking great. High of 56 and sunny. Was putting the Duster away, but think I might take a shot at some bracket racing this weekend.
