Default NHRA rules

What are the cage reuirements for IRS cars and is there any other specifics I should be looking for. I guess it all depends on how fast your car turns the quarter. But Im just wondering on some of these IRS vettes getting into the 9s

IRS was nothing to do with the rules. All rules apply.
