I'm just as guilty as other people on saftey issues and it's never fool proof what can happen on a pass. Ref: a friend of mine here in La. runs a 66 Nova, runs 5.30's/5.40's on Alcohol SFI-5 also, firewall included,full windsheild,etc, T&T day 2007. His daughter filled the front mounted tank. She forgot to lock the cap down, about 400 ft. out the cap rattled off, fuel sipohened out of the tank hit the headers, massive fire and he wasn't wearing his gloves. By the time he got the cars stopped, he had to kick the glass door off, the whole front end melted down he had 3 degree burns on his hands and wrists. he's been racing over 30 yrs. you just never can see it comming. I've been wearing an open face helment, that will change this year, even though they are legal in my class.
