poor excuse for tech at NHRA National

Moving to one second slower,, Any car in competition,with an automatic transmission, capable of running 10.99 or quicker must have a transmission shield or blanket,,period. Since we have been running a few 10.99 or better it was very politely pointed out by a Division 1 Tech Official that we need a blanket or shield for our Camaro transmission. It's on and now we are in full compliance with safety rules. It was clearly visible in our picture in National Dragster that our transmission pan was very easy to see and blanket was missing. I thought it was going to be an all day project to install this blanket but it was actually pretty easy.
