Default Yes your right.

There are 2 things here.
One is the NHRA general regulations that permit laptops in the vehicle, BUT that must be secured. If its not secured its not legal.
Two NMCA Class rules that do not allow for laptops in the vehicle past the head of staging. So just to clarify your 1\2 right.
You can call NHRA and NMCA and be correct. Thanks,

I did call NHRA and posted the NHRA tech man's email he sent me to quote him. Funny after Jeff tells me I could not and to read rule book twice he has never posted again.

Yeah I thought I would park closer to the action since it was kinda boring near the car show.

I preferred the "everyone together" awards of last year heavily over the individual drag awards of this year.

I think its a great time to have a cumulative review of the weekend.. they only did this with the grand champion and autocross people this year vs everyone.

If for some reason that is not possible than at least do all the true street racers a favor and hold their group awards on saturday directly after their event. The lsx shootout in st louis did a good job of this.

If its going to be impersonal and b.s. then just put the check in the mail.
