Default Track Safety Requirements?

What's are the necessary safety requirements to run at most tracks? I don't run a FPSS or a WOT switch. I have yet to mount the bottle. I don't have a blow down tube. I'm guessing that right there will be enough for me to not pass tech inspection. That leads to another question. When I tech in, will the guy actually check under the hood for a WOT switch?

Only thing the tech officals are ging to look for is a blow-down tube, 3000psi pop off valve for tube(should be on bottle already) and that the bottle is securely mounted. Thats all, the rest of the stuff is for your peice of mind.

P.S. your going to need a WOT switch, bad idea to run it part throttle or low rpm. definatly another thing you might want to consider is a rpm window switch especally if its a 6-speed.

Thanks for the reply. I have an A4 so I'm not worried about a window switch. I'm spraying through shifts too. I have it wired up with only an arming switch and a momentary button which activates the system. I let go of the button and everything stops. The switches are in my ashtray. I only spary above 3,000rpms and at full throttle so I'm not too concerned about a WOT switch. I guess I'm going to have to mount the bottle and get a blow down tube.

Anyone ever mount their bottle without having to drill any holes? There must be a way to use pre-existing ones.
