I have an appointment May 3 to get the demon inspected by the NHRA at muncie drag way. According to the guy I spoke with on the phone they are only going to check the cage. Isn't there anything else they will check?

Seat belts are up to date
Helmet is up to date
Has a driveshaft loop
has overflow bottle
has battery cut off switch


It is a street strip car with all functioning lights



Thanks

I just went to the muncie drag way website.

It says:

NHRA Chasis inspection date is May 3


The guy I spoke with on the phone said it takes around 15 minutes per car and is $150. That they check roll cage welds and tubing thickness



Said he sets up the appointments for the nhra to do the work at the track.

Hope to make the first pass on the car that day, it hasn't been down the track yet. We have put 40-50 miles on the car since completion.
Hope to put the split mono leafs on it tomorrow and take the xhd springs off it.

They are talking cert for $150... do you run less
than 10.0... and do you have a cage

car has a cage and I have no clue as to what it will run.

My guess would be 11.00's


The cage is one of the jegs kits with the swing out bars.

The weight is with me in it (185 lbs) and a full tank of fuel

so without me the car is 3515. changing to the mono leafs should take 40-50 pounds off of it.

The car is all steel with full interior. Heavy dana, roll cage, 4 wheel disc, frame tied, full 3 inch exhaust, normal gas tank, iron heads on the motor. The intake weighs 22 pounds

If it runs 10.0 or slower there is no reason to spend the $150 to certify it. It's legal to run 10.0 if it passes tech.

If your not going to run faster than 10.00 do not certify the car.
