The car is certified to 8.50, with all needed safety items.
Gainsville was the best tech I have ever done. I rolled in and seen the "tech" signs pointing to top end return road area. I drive down and they hand me a tech card that I fill out and sign. The tech guy walks up, looks at the car and writes a 19 on the windshield and side glass, tells me to have fun. He also says the starter will help me stage when I get up by the line. I make my first pass, 10.19@141mph. As soon as I stop in the pits, a 4 wheeler and a spree pull up with track officials on board. They say I need to return to tech with my car, and DON'T run anymore. I return to tech with the car and a normal tech inspection under hood, trunk and undercar takes place, everything is legal. He then says I need a NHRA liscence to run my speed, I pull mine out and he just smiles, hands me my paperwork and says "nice car...kinda".
