Im going to wait close to the end to send payment.. I need to get everything running first, then tuned.. I will probably need a cage before i head over too, unless they are going to be lax on the rules...??? Anyone know how strict they will be with cage polices?

I am going to wait and see if i can get the truck a little more trust worthy, i really wouldn't mind putting a T-56 in it and beef up the rear!

NHRA rules apply I do believe, you could allways make a few 1/8th mile passes ahha you get two runs before they say good by.

P.S but not sure on track rental days.

I would imagine whether or not it is a sanctioned race or a private rental I would imagine there would be the same rules to apply..they have to meet certain standards I would assume...my .02 worth..but I will call Tues. and find out for sure

Cool guys, Id appreciate it if you guys find something out for me.
I really want to hold off on the cage but if im coming to run.. It wouldn't be worth my time trailering the truck all the way over spending at least 500.00 and not getting but a few passes before I get the boot LOL.

I've seen them be more relaxed on event days than they are on street nights, but that's the tracks here. I got away without wearing my firejacket or being checked for a helmet at the last daytime test n tune day here in Phoenix, even though I was running mid 11's.
