As long as you stay out of the 11s you dont need rollcage or harnesses or fire extinguisher or battery cutoff or any of that stuff. if you manage to hit 13s though some tracks will make you wear a helmet, just take one incase. goodluck. and in my opinion dont waste your time taking that BS out, youll gain maybe a tenth if you were really really lucky.

That's not just your track...all NHRA tracks should require you to wear a helmet once you hit 13s. Its a NHRA rule. There are some tracks that make you wear helmet regardless of what you run...even if you run 16s.
