Sac. Raceway wed. street legal class safety requirements and inspection?
What do they check during the pre-drag NHRA street bracket vehicle safety inspection. On the website it says to check the NHRA handbook for the requirements but I dont have one. I am only asking about vehicle inspection since on the raceway website they already outline driver safety gear requirements. Any help from people who have gone to the street legal drags on wednesdays is appreciated.

they just make sure your car is not falling apart or leaking any fluids
they will ask if your faster then 13.99 and if you are, they will look at your helmet to make sure its certified correctly.
they will ask if you are 11.49 or faster, and if you are, they will do a full safety check on your rollcage to make sure it is up to NHRA standards.

sears point rules are the same as sac raceways.. the difference is sears point actually enforces them LOL
SacRaceway rules: 13.99 or faster, you need a helmet next time you come(if a track official is there they won't say NEXT time it will be this time). You need long pants, and a t-shirt no cut offs, a real battery tie down, and a LITTLE tread on your tires, and an over-flow catch can
11.49. you get kicked outa the wednesday night drags and on saturdays SOMETIMES you need a rollcage LOL(again see if track official is there)

Stock tranny...Everything is stock. I already know stock 03 WRX tranny is not that durable but I like to side step the clutch when launching instead of just dropping it so the tranny takes less of a beating. Plus I usually launch around 3500 to 4000 rpm so its not real high rpm launching. Anyways since its all stock with no performance mods from what I hear it should be ok as long as I am not launching it repeatedly on a regular basis and shouldnt be a problem otherwise unless I mod the car out to produce more than 300hp in which case I would probably swap out the stock tranny for and STi one. Thanks to everyone for the help with the rule posts.
