It is amazing how easily these cars can become monsters with a few mods. Crazy HP numbers for the track, then cruise on down to Applebee's for dinner. Versatility.

If you are quicker than 9.99 or 135 MPH, then a jacket and pants meeting SFI Spec3.2A/5 and gloves meeting SFI Spec3.3/1 are mandatory. 4.Roll Bar All cars running 11.49 or quicker must be equipped with a roll bar conforming to NHRA general regulations. 5.Roll Cage All cars running 10.99 or quicker must be equipped with a roll cage conforming to NHRA general regulations*. *By NHRA rules, a roll cage is not required in a full bodied car until 9.99 or 135MPH. The 2009 NHRA rule book shows that a roll cage is required between 10.99 and 10.00 only at speeds of 135 or higher.

If you go below 11.50 a cage is required at most tracks. As you go faster the number or "points" in the cage go up. Like 5 point, 8 point, 10 point whatever. It's all lined out in the rule books.
That video was a bit spooky. I wanted to run 11.40s and get booted for no roll cage.....that video made me take pause for sure. My PB is 11.79 at 122...and I spun shifting to 2nd on DRs. I'd hate to flip the car off the track at that speed. |

4.5 ROLL BAR Roll bar mandatory in all cars running 11.00 (*7.00) to 11.99 (*7.49) and in convertibles running 11.00 (*7.00) to 13.99 (*8.59), and in dune-buggy type vehicles running 12.00 (*7.50) seconds and slower. Permitted in all cars. See General Regulations 4.10, 10.6. 4.6 ROLL CAGE Roll cage mandatory in cars running 10.99 (*6.99) or quicker, or any car exceeding 135 mph (217.2 km/h). Full bodied cars, with unaltered firewall, floor and body (from firewall rearward, wheeltubs permitted), running between 10.00 (*6.40) and 10.99 (*6.99) roll bar permitted in place of roll cage. Cars running between 7.50 (*4.50) and 9.99 (*6.39) must have chassis inspected every three-years by the ASN and have a serialised sticker affixed to cage before participation. Must conform to specs for body style used, as listed in General Regulations 4.11, 10.6. That should make it as clear as mud!

Hypurone is correct. The confusion comes in on whether the car has had the firewall or floorpans altered (the distinction between a still stock body in most every way VS a lightened and modified full bodied door car).
We run in several different NHRA & IHRA classes at the divisional & National level so NHRA tech is a part of the racing we do. Many tracks have stricter or looser rules as they choose for test & tune or local points events. |
