Discovery of blinders/staging aids could be cause for disqualification of run, regardless of whether infraction occurs during qualifying or eliminations; at the sole and absolute discretion of NHRA.

The rule prohibiting blinders explicitly states that an OEM sun visor is allowed to be in the car, but is it legal to use it as a 'blinder' or 'staging aid', whatever that means?
The sun was in my eyes so I put my legal visor down.
