Can you please change your picture though for the love of God? It makes me hate you every time you post.

It's a NHRA and IHRA thing.

DS loop is cheap, anyone going to a strip with sticky tires should run one.

Ahh never heard of it but just googled it. Lol ive never been asked to have one nor have never heard that you needed one. Even the guys running faster than me never mentioned it. 7s range are the people i talked to bc i know that's what i should and hopefully be running once my car is finished and running correctly.

From what I understand with a carbon shaft you don't have to have one. They've never even looked at me for that.

You might be in for a good race if he does those mods and some tires

Correct. I tell them that and they don't even look for a loop. I run one on stang,Catfish and Supra.
