do you need a helmet for 13.99 and quicker? i only been there once for a grudge night and ran 2 high 13's without them saying anything. i plan to run between 13.0-13.7 this time, would i need a helmet?

yeah I hear sometimes you get lucky and they dont trip. but when I ran my 13.8, the lady ran up to me on my next run and was like I think they told you to wear a helmet, I was like why I ran a 14 flat

you only get one head. I figure the conditions at Sac (unknown surface, could be oil, radiator, water spots everywhere) warrant a helmet in whatever car you run. 8 second, 12 second, or 20 second.

In a weaknuts stock motored 5.0 (mine) I've almost had the back end come around on me on the 1-2 shift. I know that wasn't from power! (must have been water or something).

so you never know, ya know?
