The only reason I can think that TMP would boot you if you're in the 11s is if you didn't have a driveshaft loop and/or scatter shield AND you were running on race rubber.

I was at St. Thomas about 3 weeks ago and they didnt even inspect any of our cars, I went down with 4 other F Bodies.

I was asked to leave last year when I ran 11.1@129.22 The week before I ran 11.03@127.1 and they left me alone. I have a rollbar now and jacket so it is no longer a concern.

Yeah I had been warned before about my ET Streets and no safety loop, but I just broke down and got one.
