I'm amazed they still want drivers to wear those. You guys should be thinking Hans.

I'll be sending in payment asap. Just gotta get someone local to send it through paypal. Its a long shot but I may bring my bike down for this (weather permitting) if I'm unable to save up for another clutch. You think the manager would be ok with me making a few runs if I did?

I've looked at them hank. Wishing they weren't so damned expensive. I'm a budget racer for the moment, this safety stuff is getting outrageous.

You shouldnt have any problem running a bike as long as your wearing the proper gear. I wanna say for bikes anything under 10.0 you have to be in full leathers and of course helmet. Anything slower than 10.0, long pants, leather jacket and helmet.

Well under light of recent events (this morning) it looks like im going to be home in less than a week and to stay. My company's contract was pulled due to the recent budget cuts along with most other companies in my program. So looks like there is a good possibility I will make the convention this year...But unless i land a new job quick and a decent one, I probably wont be bringing my car. We will see how the next few weeks play out.

It sucks but im kinda glad i can finally go back home to a normal job. Good thing is is that there is a lot of work in the ft hood area right now. So hopefully all will go smooth.

They probably will if more than one bike shows up. They ain't gonna put you side by side with cars, though.

No, for the road course event.

I have one, if you want to use it. It's a 20 degree/large All you'd need to do is install the anchors in your helmet. I think the anchors are like $50. You also need a harness in the car, obviously.

I have a full face dirt bike helmet with goggles (for car use)..would that be good for both road course and drag racing?
