Your track must tech hard. I run sub 7 in the 8th and never had any issues with tech. They tech light at both tracks down here.

It's hit or miss sometimes, but I'm more the type to want it to be able to pass at any track with no problems. I don't want to squeeze by. I don't look at faking the axle swap "squeezing by" because it's not necessary and not noticeable. Everything else will be compliant with proper SFI patches and what not. The seat, harness, jacket, cage etc. I even have things required or the next class up, like the ati damper.
