Thanks Bob, I am on the waiting list for the new ford cast iron heads (NASCAR approval). I was hoping
it was still cast iron only. I would like to stay away from aluminum heads...they can suck up some serious $$$

It was a B/S 396/375 Nova......( Power by LeBrun) Hell, Im SURE if I didn't thave to wear a jacket I wouldnt have! Last time with that car was approx 1990.

Well, I wasn`t running my own Stocker in 1990, but I knew plenty who did, I don`t think any of them even owned a SFI jacket until a few years ago. I always seem to remember Jim Waldo running his Fairlane and Mustang with a T shirt on. Anybody else recall this, or am I crazy?

Roll bar required for 11.49 or faster . Unless your car is 1.66 under the index you can use the belts that came in it . Look in the NHRA archives under Stock Nov. 2007 . Mike

Mike, the general regs may say that, but the Stock section of my NHRA rule book clearly states, under roll bars, "Mandatory in A/S thru M/S,A/SA thru M/SA, and all convertibles....". It doesn`t make any execptions for cars slower than 11.49. And unfortunately, I`m nowhere close to 1.66 under!:eek:

I think(but not absolutley sure) that Bobby D. had only a T-shirt on the "first Stocker in the nine's" run..

Re: 2009 Rule Changes
 
Did anyone catch the wording in the "Windshield, Windows" and "Helmet" sections regarding blinders? It appears that any sort of helmet mounted blinders are OK as long as the driver thinks it's safe? Wasn't there some restriction on blinders attached to the helmet last year? I don't use one so I guess I don't have a dog in the fight. But the wording in these rules seems odd in that it seems to leave the decision about the safety of the blinder soley up to the driver. It's sort of like it's indemnifying NHRA from any incidents related to not being able to see where you're going with a cardboard box over your head as long as you think it's safe.
