Ernie et al,

presume the full-face helmet rule is meant to deal with accidents like Chick Ross' -- although I recall that he was wearing a full-face helmet (unfortunately I think the visor was up, not down...).

interesting too that a methanol and/or NOS car quicker than 7.49 (T/D territory) will require a -15 firesuit and gloves/boots... lots of $$, and I believe the -15 stuff has an expiration of 5 years... that'll be a lot more expensive than the Gen-Turi (generator) exhaust kit...
