I never knew they would come to your house and do it I figured they would have a thing that they would do it once a month at a track local to you....nice
So i have looked throughout the rule book myself about black pipe. Nothing in there, is that black pipe welded seam or dom ? I have some of it laying at my house since i was having a hard time finding any 1-5/8 tubing. The stuff i have has a welded seam...im not sure i should use it or not, also its quite a bit heavier
The only parts of the cage that is black pipe is the door bars because those were added on later from the original cage it looks like. The rest is dom. I think I remember hearing our NHRA guy say that black pipe is okay but I’m not sure if he meant just for the door bars or if he was regarding the whole cage. May be worth a call to your divisions NHRA guy to ask!
Great video
Thank you DJ!
Very cool! Glad to see the car coming along! Curious to what they charge to come cert the Cage!
About $200!
@@PLANBRACING nice! Not bad at all! Thanks for the reply
Car looks like a monster. Good subject matter
Thank you!
I just learned something new. I never actually knew how they certified a cage
That was the goal of making the video! Glad people can get something out of it!
I saw you yesterday
Nice! Did you come by our pit?
No I saw you guys running the cars

I think they mainly do it at the track at different events but our NHRA rep happens to live in the same town as us so we may be a bit spoiled!
If you're willing to pay, they will come to your house. Easier if they aren't scheduled to to be at a track any time soon.
