If your NA, you should be ok. If you add a power adder, like N20 or supercharger/ turbo then you need a fire jacket at most NHRA tracks now.

not yet Allen wants me to goto him so he can fine tune it. The only down side is I broke my foot and I can not work for now, and my military disabilty pay is not great. I do plan on making a few trips to houston when I have the money
