E-Town Times
What is the fastest time you can run at e-town these days without a cage?
and also for FI do they require a fireproof jacket or anything other then the standard helmet?

a helmet
you can rent a helmet there at the track each time but its kinda
best bet is to buy your own but make sure its snell rated and check the exp. date and/or manufacture date... yes helmets have them. Typically the track will let you use 1 that is within the 5yr mark... ie: if the helmet was manuf. in 2009 you would be ok.. if it was 2006 you would be out.
thinking of joining us this season??

I've only been to the track a few times .. .(e-town once with my old 00 Trans Am)
Now I've got the vette and its coming home from ECS in a few days so I will need to see what I can do
So looks like Ill need to pick up a Jacket and launch soft so I can stay for the day and not get the boot on the first pass!

What makes you think you will break 11.5, there was a guy here with a s/c C6 that thought the same. I think he got in to the 16s his first day out 
If you go to a track rental you don't need to worry about the 11.5 roll bar rule.

It is not easy to hook up with all that power, especially on stock tires.

The days of being able to run a non legal car at rentals is over now. 
The track had to tighten up on that around here after a fatality of a driver in a non legal car last season.

11.5 will be hard to brake with stock tires but not impossible. With drag tires for sure you can get below 11.5 . I have almost 100 HP less with stock 3.15 and stall and ran 11.6 with drag tires.
