Tint and Tech
My car will be out of the shop this week from the body and paint work. My question is (since I will finally be able to bring it to the track) will I have a problem with limo tint at the track? I have read the NHRA regs and according to the little book only factory tint is allowed.
By the way looking at my sig, what do you think the car will run?

The tracks Ive been to have never said anything about darker than factory tint in any vehicles that I have saw, so I wouldnt worry about that.
What will you run.....hmmmm.....let me see.....with a fram fuel filter, flowmaster mufflers, a steeda shift knob among other things...(that shift knob is good for at least a couple tenths)..well, I just cant tell, youll have to take er out to find out... |

I don't think the people in the tower would mind the limo tint because I think it would make it easier for them to read your "dial in" on your window
