Has anyone gone and how are they enforcing the rules?

I know that now if you run a non OE power adder, the NHRA makes you wear a single layer fire jacket.

Section 1A, located on page 24 of the 2006 NHRA Rulebook read as follows:
10.00 (*6.40 1/8 mile) and slower; all E.T. non-OEM supercharged, non-OEM turbocharged, or nitrous-equipped cars with an OEM or .024-inch steel firewall: Jacket meeting SFI Spec 3.2A/1 mandatory

In addition any car running over 135 mph will have additional requirements so please ask if you think you will be in that area.

 

I have a couple buddy's with Stang's running nitrous and S/C, both in the 11's, and neither have been required to wear a fire jacket. Just a cage and a helmet. I might depend on the "tech" inspector too. Usually pretty loose there. Just tell them you're hoping for 13's and you'll do fine.

 

I believe the firejacket is a new revision. I know Englishtown and other tracks are strongly enforcing it.

 

Das ist schizer!!! (Scheiße?) Well damn.... how much more shit do I have to buy before this summer....

 

i know theyre not too strict on the rules at big events.(figures when they should be theyre not) NOPI is suppose to require those cut off cord things for bikes (no i dont remember the proper name for them), but our tech let us pass after we claimed it was on its way there with someone else.

 

Teathered Kill switch

 

thatd be the one hehe

 

Just remembered from my bike days.

 

sadly, mine are over...unless someone just frigging agrees w/ me on a 600

 

Well the Longtubes and o/r x pipe go in on the 23rd, and i will probably install the springs, LCA's and c/c plates on the 24th.
