Not sure about IHRA, but NHRA you would need a 5 point roll bar and arm restraints. And a fire jacket with a power adder.
I forgot to mention a 5 point harness also.

I always thought the IHRA rules were more strict than that of NHRA. Especially for verts.
I suppose I misunderstood because I was under the impression that 11.49 and below needed a full cage and jacket. Trap speed has something to do with it too.
What's your trap speed? ~125ish?
This is why I stick to private track rentals
