samg... it's not so much what the factory rates your vehicle at from a safety point of view. That's for crusing down the hwy., at a "reasonable" rate of speed. With that said, "if" something happens, exactly how is your equipment going to protect you?
Sure the body per se won't (maybe?) cave in on "you", the tires shouldn't blow/seperate, so that leaves "you" !
But I have 16,000 air bags around me! Yep, sure do, and at first impact they inflate in milliseconds... then start to deflate
Well after about 5-6 end overs, you're left bouncing around inside, with only your 3 point harness.... maybe
if you haven't seperated from that safety device. What's left?
Toss in the top fuel acceleration of the overweight, underpowered diesel rescue vehicles, and you'll see why. Everything takes time. Something you have precious little of in the above example.
IMHO first do the rules. They're there to protect you, not bust your chops so you can't participate. The racing is fun, but only if it's done safely!
I posted the question cause i've only run bikes before, and I didn't want to make the trip & then be told no. Long ride... no racing...long ride home... sucks!
Hope this helps..................
