Although its not a S/SS, I thought it was worth posting this photo. Your looking at Ed Alessi's A/DA dragster. Engine built by Brian Tilburg, best know for many fast S/SS engines. Its a 1400hp plus combo, and the car is a work of art. Ed Alessi from Select Performance also builds many S/SS trans and convertors.

Both companies are excellent to deal with, great people and great products.

I'm not real sure about that. I race with a full face helmet, but don't even have the shield on it when I run super gas, or super stock. Even not in super comp unless I was driving a dragster or altered. I go thru tech at every race I attend with no shield on the helmet

Just re looked at the rule book and what it says it shields permitted, does not say required. Jack, If someone is enforcing it, I would want to know why if I was you

Hey guys... let's try to stay on topic. I post videos and photos so people can enjoy the live from threads not to pick apart someones ride or safety gear. If you have issues with rules or racers, pm them and or start another thread.

Love the on-board videos keep them coming! Are you using a GoPro camera? HD?

Thanks for the pictures and videos as well as the reports. Always enjoy them.

Is there someplace to get discount tickets or coupons for tomorrow? I'm in the area and thought we would come watch. Thanks.
