Question:

I will be running a high 10-second 32 Bantam at my local NHRA Member Track and I wanted to know if I need to wear arm restraints since it will not run quicker than 9.99.

Arm Restraint Andi

Answer:

Arm Restraint Andi,

In the 2012 NHRA Rulebook Section 4A, page 8, Driver 10, Arm Restraints, it states “Mandatory in open-bodied cars running 11.99 (*7.49) or quicker.”
