    Stap 2014

      I'm there! Probably bringing the Sand Box. I'll deserve a kick in the ass if I don't have the HO upper/TB on by then!

          Can't wait for the auto crossing. No idea what toilet I'll bring, but I'll be sure to make a fool out of myself.

            I'm considering going. You need a passport to get into Canada these days right?

            What gear would I need to go down the strip? A helmet of some kind obviously. But what kind? I have an ancient one that my uncle gave me.
            1990 MGM: $50 E7 heads, HO cam, Holley SysteMAX lower intake, HO upper intake with an Explorer TB. LSC ECM. Lincoln logs into stock dual exhaust. K&N drop in air filter. Wide ratio AOD, 2400 converter with a 3.08 one tire fire out back. Car is less slow now. Then there's the '92 Beater. Dual 2.25" exhaust with shiny tips. Rumbles nice. Super slow. Burns oil too.

              Helmet? At a Canadian drag strip?

              We use empty beer cans for helmets.

                You will need a passport or an enhanced driver's license to enter Canada by land. You do not need a helmet unless you are running 13.99 or faster in 1/4 at the drag strip. Helmet specs are according to the NHRA rules. Most of the time however, if you have any helmet as long as it's not a bicycle helmet, you will be ok. I've been using a motorcycle helmet for years.

                You will need a helmet for auto crossing however and that one has to be at least Snell M2005 (a lot of DOT rated helmets are not eligible). They are pretty strict when it comes to this. I imagine you could use same helmet for the drag strip.

                  Cool, so just show up and floor it!


                  Don't think I'd be doing any auto-crossing. My single hollow sway bar would hate me

                  Sounds like an enhanced license would be the way to go for me. I'm not setting foot on an airplane anyway.
