Seriously they do not care. I ran without a tie down, I ran under 13s without a helmet. My buddy ran 12s without a helmet. A guy I know ran with vice grips on his brake line. They are so ghetto there and do not care at all. They have never EVER looked at anything on my car. All they care is if the card if signed. Also, this may be the last Test and Tune EVER at St. Thomas, as the judgment as to wheather the track will be forced to close is coming soon. 92 6/4bolt 12.1@114MPH 1.647 60'
