11.99 and faster for a 6 point (11.49 ihra)
9.99 and faster for a 10 point (plus a license)

i cant remember what the times are for an 1/8, i want to say 7.49 for 6 point in 1/8th.

EVIL is correct on all accounts. In the 1/8th mile, the NHRA rule book reads 7.49 or faster needs a 6 point and 6.99 or faster needs a 10 point. However, as you've noticed Craig, the 1/8th mile tracks seem to care less.

You'll need more than just a cage to make your car legal in the 10's. Next time you drop by work, I'll give you a list <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
