Super street diapers

The way I read the Super-Street rules, it looks like even a 135+ mph car would not be required to have a diaper, since it is not required under general regulations. That having been said, I think everyone should have one. I just got back from a big bracket race at Pacific (formerly Seattle International Raceway). The guy pitted next to me was a Super-Street racer (Gary Ermish), who runs around 136 mph. His motor (freshened at the beginning of the season) let loose just like Jason's, only it happened as he crossed the finish line first round. He spun it around, and somehow only lightly smacked the wall (Pacific is a pretty wide track at the top end). I pulled his wife to the side as they were towing the car back, and suggested that they get an engine diaper.

Regards,
