The problem with going 749 is you car needs cert to 6.0
All the FX would be junk because you went too fast
More $. More problems
So let it rip Lenny let’s see what happens

My opinion is ---if you run faster or quicker than whatever you are licensed for your out--

same applies for certification level of the chassis as well as the safety equipment (seat belts/roll bars/drivers suits etc.) you must have to run that ET.

In other words what ET is your license good for and does your chassis safety level as well as protective clothing meet that quicker ET. In many cases it won't.

totally agree with you. the pully changes have been helping with our cars not going sub 7.50. Last one was a real party damper for mine. Since my FX car is done I dont know how much we will be running the FSS cars this year. The 6.0 cert chassis will be good to go now. No worries on going that fast ever with these combos.
