Message should be consistent from track to track, unless you get lucky and have a lax track for rules or get an alcoholic for a tech inspector. But to get spec'd to run in the 10's (Which you will be doing much more of), the main safety items they look for are: 5 point roll bar, a fire jacket, 5 point harness, some tracks will make you have a driveshaft loop, an approved helmet, and technically you need a bunch of other safety items (ie. Certain type of bell housing, etc.) that most tracks don't really require. Like we say on the west coast, "safety is way overated" (seriously I'm kidding). Just an unsolicited tip, you might start at 20 or so psi on the tires to get comfortable with the "tire walk", and ease them down a little at a time. I imagine that's a little uncomfortable at 135...they also sell nomex adult diapers. Once again, nicely done! Mark
