    I dont recall seeing a roll bar in there. At what point are you required to have added safety features to keep running?

    Envious. I Just want mine to run 7.5's on street tires.

    I don't know that. If they did, well, I guess I wouldn't go back with it (Or slow down). Really don't think I want to put one in. :hmmm:

    Actually, the only thing I have installed so far is the shocks. I haven't taken the time to break the rest down yet. I do like the shocks though! (y)
    Oh yeah...when I do get the rest of the parts put on I expect to be able to get a pic like the one in your sig! :drive:

    N.H.R.A. Rules require a rollbar at 11.49 and quicker. (It use to be at 11.99)

    Nope...still running stock disc brakes too. Planning on doing all of that some time this winter after Cruising The Coast. Don't wanna keep it down too long right now with all the shows and cruises going on (and races now). CTC is 1st week of October. After that I usually take a break from shows and stuff. I have a few things I want to do to it at that time and that susp/brakes is one of them. :)

    What would that equate to in the 1/8 mile? About 9.5?
