Driveshaft safety loop question
At what 1/4 mile time (if any) do you need a DS saftyloop and does it have to be approved, or can you use a home built one?

Cool, thanks, I guess I better get one done. Anyone know the thickness. They are pretty slack where I race. I have run a 12.4 on street tires and no-one has said anything to me.

Just FYI. The Jegs 82-up Camaro/firebird loop fits very well(even with aftermarket torque-arm and exhaust), and is pretty cheap(~$50).
