E town new rule.... so I have heard....

Any aftermarket blower, turbo or if you run nitrous NO MATTER what you run, you must have a fire jacket.

NHRA says 11.49 or quicker.

I ordered one wednesday, 2 day shipping..... it will arrive monday?!?!?!?!

It is in transit in ups's hands now.

Sigh.... I'm spraying saturday... maybe because I know most of the tech inspectors there they might let me slide just this time

Hmm, that's interesting. Should limit the amount of turbo hondas that show up....

thats surprising, summit is usually fantastic with their shipping. I would think it'd be there today unless you ordered it late wed.

I'm gonna give it a shot and try and race w/o one.

I'll even print out the reciept that I ordered one.

Most of the tech's their know me... and it isn't an NHRA rule.

We shall see what happens.

If they really know you, they should have been requiring a full fire suit for you for a while now ;)
