Default Question about the Blow Down tube

Ok, how nessasary is this to use? I have one, but I just don't have much room back there in the compartment to use it, are they going to keep me off the track for not having one or what?

the track in Sac requires it and it is definitely a good thing to have just in case the disc bursts while you're driving. get a steel braided hose to help routing it.

Every track is going to require it.. and it's not necessary at all.. until your bottle overpressures and bursts the disc... then it's REALLY necessary.

Like seat belts.. you only need them for a few seconds so why wear them all the time?

BTW, someone had a posting that steel braided lines aren't acceptable everywhere. I don't know.. just relaying info I read on here. Check it out.
