Safety Equipment for 11s

Ive heard that to run 11s (high 11s) you need a fireproof jacket. Is this true? And is there anything else i might need. Its on drag radials so there is no need for a driveshaft safety loop

go on the NHRA/Ihra site depending on your area, they should have a general overview,

11.50s/60s here.

No cage, no jacket.

The only thing I have is a D/S loop and a Helmet

11.50 and slower in a hardtop/T-top car in NHRA requires helmet (Snell 95 or better) and driveshaft loop if running slicks.

Check out this link for the NHRA requirements on this subject when hitting the 11.49 and under club:
