*Paging* GrandSportC3
Oliver, I was curious does the track say anything about racing your convertible with no rollbar? I realize you race with your hard top, I plan to do the same. NHRA rules state all convertibles 13.99 and faster require rollbars. I know once you hit 1.99 you need a 6tp.
Have they ever made a comment?
Thanks :cheers:

If you run with a hardtop - it's the same as running with a coupe!!

I also would need a driveshaft loop.. Last night they asked me: "Do you have a aftermarket driveshaft loop" and I had to lie... Luckily they didn't look :D :D

I'd think halfshaft loops would be more important for a Corvette anyway.

Jegs, Summit, and P.A.W. has them as well. I have NEVER seen the tech guy look for a driveshaft loop yet at No Problem Raceway. I guess they don't enforce until 11's? :confused:

Re: *Paging* GrandSportC3 (GrandSportC3)
i have a friend with a 67 stang, right after he installed his hurst shifter he couldnt get the neutral safety switch to hook up. the techs at bandimere asked if he had one, and he lied. the funny part was he hit the starter in the staging lane with it in gear. :lol: they still didnt say anything. he had the switch hooked up within a week. if it were my track he would have been soooooooo gone. :yesnod: :lol:
