Oh, I was under the impression all forced induction vehicles needed one ???
If not, I'll be saving 70 bucks on a jacket. |

Re: fire jackets for 2007
I believe its only nhra tracks requiring the fire jacket thang for cars that are turbo that didnt come stock with them
LACR requires 2 lug nuts, a tall can for a fuel tank and to smoke tumbleweed |

I didn't bring a helmet and the tech didn't say anything then the older guy came over and asked where my helmet was. "I don't need one, it's not that fast." He was telling the kid not to underestimate a turbo Honda. ::) I told him I doubt I'd get into 13s that night and he said it was fine unless I started putting passes in the 13.4 area consistently. I didn't hit 13s, haha. JP |
Re: fire jackets for 2007

Re: fire jackets for 2007
