A minimum of a 5-pt roll bar is required in NHRA at 11.99. Over in IHRA its a 6-pt roll bar at 11.49. Don't skirt the safety issues, there's just too much at stake. I'm real disappointed in your local track if they've allowed you to run as fast as 10.60 without a roll bar of any sorts. It puts not only their insurance at risk, but the insurance for every other track under the same sanctioning body.
Do the right thing and install the bar.
