Alaska Raceway Park is an IHRA track, so those rules apply. Basically, at 11.50 you'll need a cage, driveshaft loops, racing-fire jacket, C-clip eliminators(unless you have disc brakes), and some other junk.

 

hmm not sure I am ready to have a cage built into my DD yet..

 

Last summer, Matt (blue Lightning) ran too fast. Then He sarted slamming on the brakes before the finish line, and that didn't go over well. So he decided to just shut it down after the 1/8th. Once they noticed his 1/8th mile times, Earl had another chat with him about required safety equipment.

Last time I talked to him, he wasn't having fun anymore, and was going to take the truck home for some more mods. Not sure what he's planning, but I'm certain that it had nothing to do with slowing his truck down....

 

Geesh. wonder how they come up with that magic number that all of a sudden everything changes and you need all this extra safety gear.

I can understand liability and safety but why 11.50. what makes that the magic number

 

Finally uploaded the video from today. Went out in the middle of no where and tried to find some dry pavement. Here is a couple short clips put together of me having a little fun

 

Where the hell is that road, with zero traffic?!?!????

I heard traction problems....

 

KGB right at the Point turnoff.

And yea I could have put it in auto 4wd or 4x4 but was wanting to leave some black marks lol

 

one of your recent videos you dropped the hammer at 40mph,it down shifted and tires lit up,was that on dry pavement?

 

Ya that was the main hwy.
