Default What do I need to run at 66?

Planning on going the 11th for T&T

Wouldnt be faster than high 12's will be running a 315 Nitto Drag. Will I need a DSL? I have a Snell approved helmet that should be good to go.

Sorry I'm used to running at 41 where the rules pretty much mean nothing.

Thanks!

Helmet definetly, the tech ****'s will check the rating.
Not sure about the DSL, they never checked under my car for one.
Good luck.

You shouldn't need one. LEt them know your times and your basic mods. If they ask, "Do you have a driveshaft loop", tell them yes. You will be able to run. There is no way that old guy is going to get down on his hands and knees and check.

You only need a DSL with slicks. Your good to go with the helmet.

It has to be Snell 98 or later I think, might even be 2000. If I remember correctly the 95's just expired last year. And then the DS loop that they mentioned, but I also doubt the guy will be looking for it.

My helmet is Snell 2000 so I should be good there.
