JohnJoe1011 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I worked grid for several race clubs including Texas NASA Region, I do walk a lot thru the grid to do tons of safety check like, locked hoods, hoods pins, doors closed, windows down on Porsche's i make sure the engine hood on the rear is close and locked. I also check the driver harness, chin strap. But occasionally I see race cars like the Exocet or open wheels, and the drivers don't have arms restrains. This is not a requirement for HPDE, but at level 3 and 4 these driver with these cars go fast around the track. How can this be enforced? I do drive a BMW HPDE 3 and I push the car pretty good I do have a 4 point roll bar with harness and soon to have a HANS device but I don't have a window net again this is not a requirement. But.... Opinions are welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t500hps Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Unfortunately we don't realize what we're missing til we've experienced it. I ran my SRT8 way too fast considering it was my daily driver street car withour any track prep other than brakes. Now that I have a competition license and full racecar/gear, I'd never get back in my SRT8 like I drove it before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
