Smile Re: Tech Officials Qualifications?

Jim - Since you stated you had a serious question i'll try and give you a serious answer .First , all tech people are SFI tested -- mostly on safety issues - there are several levels depending on where you are going to work at -- local track workers then divisional then National event workers and so on .As for class car info you either have it or spend time learning from Divisional workers who train .Yes , its long hours and short pay but can be very rewarding to some .Anyone interested should contact their Division Director as the NHRA is just like the Marines -- they need a few good men (and women) .

One last thing -- a unnamed Division Director once told me I could steal anything I wanted as a 'techie' -- with my eyes ...........

Hope I've helped.............
