thank you

Yes it has to start the car. That's from NHRA Head tech

maybe NHRA should put out a list of approved batteries, or better yet, they need to make it like a Concours show where every original sticker and date code specific things like batteries, belts, and hoses need to be used on the car.

Good idea I'd have to have an extinct tar top Delco. Ha

Hey Chris, I assume you are joking but better yet, maybe we could get SFI approved dated batteries that have to be replaced every year...
