        Unless it's got a cage, I believe you can't run for anything but time only. I'm sure more knowledgeable people will chime in.

                I think you will be allowed to run up to 135 before the cage implementation.I will check the rule book in a minute.

                  Nope, as per section 3.B

                    Good job, Matt. That post of the rulebook page SHOULD answer a LOT of questions.

                    See you in April

                        Josh,

                        If you want to go for a track record in the Production Pickup (C/PP) class, you must have in place all safety equipment for the speed you expect to go (or the record speed, whichever is higher).

                        If you run in Time Only (/TO), you will only need a Snell M2005 or SA2005 helmet (we can get you a loaner), long sleeve shirt, long pants and a 3-point seat restraint (factory lap/shoulder belt is fine).

                        Be Safe, go fast, have fun !!!
                        ;D

                            A good GPS is usually more accurate than a factory speedometer.
                            They also give you a 5mph buffer.
                            Your first rookie pass will be limited to 125 mph, so you can go up to 129.999999 mph without getting into trouble.
                            If you do 130 mph, you will be going for a ride in Keith Turk's truck - which you do NOT want to do !!!

                            Go ahead and ask questions, it is the only way to learn ...
                            ;)

                                Bob, you could definitely run in a Pickup class, but ....
                                .. what size is your engine and does a Lightning have a supercharger or turbo ?
