Re: Rule 3.A.3 Drivers Helmet Support

With this new rule coming into effect in 2012, does this mean that any early adopters of the HANS device will have to buy a new one? As, they were not SFI rated until now.

Re: 2200 mph "ON LAND !!!"

How many miles would you need for the run up, and then to slow it down again? Is there a salt flat big enough?

What speed rated tyres would he use?

Hi Norm,

Sorry to hear that.
Any chance of putting up a pic of the billet wheels, so I know what I should be looking out for?

Cheers

Thanks
