FNBADAZ06 Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Nope......where else can you legally run WOT for half a mile around here ? Freeway roll racing seems to be the more popular racing over 1/4 drag racing, so this should be perfect for that type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAMMER Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Oh SHITSKI! Only coupes can run I'm guessing. Unless one has a broad definition of roll over protection being the A piller of the C6 VERT. I did send off an email to Tony asking for definition of FACTORY ROLL OVER PROTECTION.

Dvl4evr Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My interpretation is run w/ top up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAMMER Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 My interpretation is run w/ top up. I agree with you on this Jim! At many drag strips I have had to have the top and widows up! Proautosports is now much more lenient about not requiring you to have the top up any more. But each promoter has their own rules governed by their insurance coverages I'm guessing.

Chameleon Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 This would be fun if I have a car by then. . . . Assuming they let verts run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAMMER Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Ok! I just heard back from Tony re: roll over protection. His response; Hey Tim... how goes it?! Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the delayed response. Busy time... Anyway, I have tried to make myself familiar with vehicles such as the vette, for our industry. I am aware that the pillars and windshield supports meet/exceed the federal crush standards, even tho the Verts are not even required to be tested. Our rules regarding this are basically at my discretion, as insurance is ok with it. It is easier for me to make a rule as stated on the website about verts, and make exceptions from there. I take most verts on a case by case. Generally, if you have a ton of power, and no roll bar/hoop, then likely, you will not be permitted. A 900hp open top is not something I want to see upside down at 180mph. However, stock or slightly modified vehicles that meet certain federal regulations such as the Vette, I would allow. Ultimately tho, the driver must decide if he is willing to run the vehicle. Tracks dont make you sign all those waivers for nothing! So if you feel you are in the above guidelines, and are on SUFFICIENT tires, you will be fine. The biggest concern, in a straight line speed scenario, just may be tires. Make sure they are plentiful in tread, no bubbles etc. You know the drill if you have road raced. Hope that covered it, feel free to reach out again with anything else.

NRS Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I got the same message from Tony. I have asked for a specific ruling for 670hp, and will post up what he says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRS Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Woohoo, Looks like I can play: Response from Tony: Do you happen to be in a group with a Tim Accomazzo? Weird, I got nearly identical questions about Vette verts from you both 670hp would be under the radar for my concerns, since that would likely put you about the 160-165 mph range I believe. (generally, not exact science). I would be comfortable with you running. Top and windows up/closed. You have plenty enough tire for my liking. As long as they are nice and even. Also, what is your suspension setup including any swaybars or similar.
