What are you doing for a cage. NHRA is picky with full frame cars... be sure and read the rule book. I didnt think the 'Full' cage would look good with the top off, so I went with a roll bar with door/shoulder kick-outs that connect to the front of the frame just behind the front control arms. This limits me to 11 second ETs if the tech guys see it as a ,convertible... I beleive it would be good for 10 second ETs if they see it with the top on and list it as a 'hardtop'.
Havnt been to tech with mine yet, maybe this summer... just food for thought . Mine is similar to yours.

PS... I am Sooo jealous of where you live.
