You understand? Some tracks are more strict then others, and the two tracks (big tracks) I've been to never teched my car (one was an IHRA member track and the other was an NHRA member track) but I went with my uncle last weekend to a different IHRA track and they did tech all the cars, lol. So if you had a car and it didn't meet the safety requirements, then you wouldn't be allowed to race. By having my chassis certified, then there's no doubts to any tech guy that it doesn't meet the safety requirements. I mean you still have to have up to date seat belts, window nets, and so on, but having a certified car means alot.

Plus that makes it easier to sell if I ever decided to do that.
