What do you think they would say about someone running with no cage and 15 inch drag radials???? I just don't want to cut up my car and no point in going unless I have tire that hooks....???

Yea, but Tommy had a cage and ran a road race tire. I'm talking NO cage and drag radials.

Peter, you need a roll bar if you plan to reach 190mph+, but if it makes you feel any better, there was a turbo hyabusa hitting 230mph+ with NO CAGE and a nasty crosswind....no seat belt either.... there were some funny cars hitting that mph also....(and the person driving was laying completely horizontal....)......I predict you should be at 200-210 for sure so for your own safety, find out what those tires are rated at.
I linked the rules for you..

Based on the rules and based on everything I've read, it looks like I would only have ONE shot to hit "my number" as they would kick me out after my first 200+ mph pass with no cage (no bar either, sorry, don't wanna hack up the car). Just not worth it to drive all the way out for one good pass........

Peter,
There is no hack up on the car when you only put a 6 points cage....that is the requirement for 190+mph. As for the tires, you will be just fine with your 19" right now.....come on now get some ***** and come support your buddy

Tommy, "get some *****"???? I'm the one running to 190 on the streets racing bikes, what you mean???? There IS cutting when you get a 6-point. Just not as much as when you get a full cage.
