Your gonna need lots of things on your car and yourself if your planning on running 9's!!
I bought my jacket at summit racing. It was a G Force. very reasonable like 70 bucks or so and meets all specs.

Only if you have N20 or Methanol. If not then its based on times. I ran a 11.3 last time and they said i needed a jacket and cage. Yet my brother was running 12.8's in his srt 4 but had NOS and they said he needed a jacket and pants and wouldnt let him run again because of the spray.

I would double check on that "rule" our home track enforces if it didnt come stock then it is a power adder and that is the track he will be racing at occasionally.

That is wishful thinking. I don't have a book but am pretty sure it is the same at 11.49 you need a jacket, bar and belts. Besides, he is racing with us in the Pro 10

you'll need a Suit or pants and jacket if you run 9's.. If you run faster than 11.5, you will need a jacket. I do have a large, blue with white stripes jacket that I'd sell for $30..

I run at Miland Dragway (IHRA) and those are the rules for 11.49 to 9.99 cars,also a Snell 2000 or better helmet is required.RJS jackets are the nuts.You can customize the color combo and the NOMEX light weight material option is great in the summer.

I still wear a simpson helmet, and i have a simpson one layer jacket. But after working in the industry I will be doing business with stroud on everything except helmets ( i have been on my head several times when go kart racing, all wearing simson products. I have never had an injury. Plus their styling is cutting edge)
