I wonder how many cars are lacking the neutral safety switches. Safety right now is what we should concern ourselves about.

I obviously didnt tech your car this year.
I asked every driver this year to do this at the races I worked tech. Many said I was the FIRST to ever ask them to do that. Some guys looked at me like I was joking. Several almost flatout refused. Many thanked me for being thorough. Even sent a few back to the trailer because the neutral safety didnt work. Since I work tech AND safety I might look at things differently.
