Back seat

You shouldn`t need to mini tub much anyway. You`re only allowed a 9" wide slick.

Thanks guys, I bought an 68 Camaro ex stock eliminator car with no motor. I have pictures of the car running in Stock. My car is mini tubed and has no back seat but it's all finished off with carpet. It ran in IHRA G/CM. We have installed a small block 400 in the car to get some seat time with the car first. Our goal is to race Stock. All input would be appreciated.

If you run in a class lower than M and don't need a roll bar but you run a fuel cell and need a fire wall do you still need a back seat?

Basically, yes, without a roll-bar or -cage you still need to have your rear seat in place.. The bulkhead that the rear cushion attaches to normally serves as the fire-proof barrier for a fuel cell installed in the trunk. The seat itself doesn't effect that function.

Thanks Lew. I did put a firewall in when I changed to a fuel cell in the 66. If I need to I can still get the back seat in.

The IHRA allows mini tubs. The NHRA doesn't.
