LOL! Funny you say that since I was messing around with a couple earlier

I had one with a large 420 at the top & text under it that says "Wanna get High?"

A poster would be cool. I was actually thinking of putting together a calendar since people seem to like my photos.

You can run 11.50 before getting kicked out. Keep it turned down for the practice runs and TRY to get through the first round of eliminations. By then the sun is going down and the track temp drops dramastically. Yes, I said dramastically. Regardless, then go ahead and turn up the wick for your "final run". "Nice run, here is your ticket. Please leave now"

You were probably joking, but I don't think they're required until a trap of 150 or sub 9. It's something like that. What you DO need for sub 11.50 (or over 135 trap) is a flame-retardant jacket, roll bar, and side bars.
