NHRA 2013 Rules Amendments

[Tom Goldman]

Sounds like a response to the unfortunate accident at Atco ,when several people were injured by a flying collector.
I usually dont jump on NHRA's bandwagon when we have to spend money on new stuff, this is a reasonable rule.
Consider not only the possibility of injury to crew or spectators, but loose a collector down track and run over it , the consequences could be catastrophic.
