We are all packed up too. Pouring rain here too. Fast 4 would probably not include me at 18.5 seconds!

Its an nhra track. You probably need one if you run faster than 13.99, but I would bring one anyway to be good. Greg |

I don't remember about Bristol, but some tracks have their own requirements for safety equipment, based on local/state/insurance requirements. IE: New Jersey requires a helmet any vehicle in competion. Also a state permit for Nitrous. Georgia requires a fire extinguisher in the pit area of a trailered car. Best to check with the track. I always wear a helmet, and seat belt. |

As far as I know a helmet is required if you run 13.99 or faster. no shorts or tank tops while on the track. you must wear a seatbelt. you must have a neutral safety switch. I am going to bring a helmet just to be safe. I don't know if they are required no one has said anything to me about a helmet during street fights but I am no where near 13.99 on all motor. you also need to have a puke jug, they let you have a plastic bottle zip tied to the radiator support. they seem to be pretty cool and let you fix things if they find them. I would also have a battery tied down. I use a ratchet strap and that is cool for the class. |

We also talked about the four fastest cars run each other if we have time. It would be 1 vs 2 and 3 vs 4 and the winner vs winner to have bragging rights and there may be a small purse as well.
Jack, has anything been decided on the fast 4 race?This sounds fun. Would it be heads up or still dial in? All packed and waiting for rain to stop around here. See everyone tomorrow. Greg |

We had a great time (Although it was pretty warm) and we are staying in town and leaving in the morning. From the Covalt Clan thanks to Jack & Brian for putting on a great race and to Red for the nice payouts! It is really nice to be wanted at the track and they treated us well. Congratulations to Rodney & Ron on the wins! Hope to see everyone at the Wilkesboro race in August. Rick |
