Well you guys are lucky, if you wanna go down the strip here u need a helmet, long sleeve pants and long sleeved shirt even if your gonna run a 20 sec pass lol. Also if you do quicker than an 11 flat you need to have a cage. We are allowed passengers though.

great lakes dragaway in union grove says you need a helmet for 12.99 and faster and i think it is a roll cage at 10.99 or 9.99 one or the two.

Well, since that tack is 20 minutes from my front door, I'd vote "Yes".
i saw maple leaves and 13.xx at 175 mph seemed a little wrong and i didn't read your loc

450 was good enough to get me into the low 11s if I recall right.

Well I've already done a 13.5 @ 104 on my current 230hp so low 11's is where I'm aiming. Ordered all my parts today
