    Has anyone heard of NHRA changing Roll Bar requirement from 11.99 To 11.49 on a Street Car? I heard this on another less used site but could get no details.

    Yes it's true. Go to NHRA.com. It was a news item about a month ago, so you'll probably have to look in their archives.

    Have fun.

    IHRA has been 11:49 for a long time. All the tracks near to me are IHRA. Tom

    Yes my nearest track is IHRA as well. But all the others I go to are NHRA. and I've had to park a time or two. Just couldn't seem to detune enough to run consistantly above 11.99. This is good news to me. They do mean with slicks if you have a drive shaft loop though do they not?

    GEE Tom, thats a good 1/4 mile time. Your sixty foot is excellent. What set up do you have to achieve it. I'm Stock suspension with an air bag right coil. My sity foot is 1.62. My MPH is 115.77. with an ET of 11.58. Alot of your lower ET is in the 60 ft. Looks like we're making about the same HP. Interesting Tom.
