Cool idea. Didn't even think of that. I guest add that to list of my build also. Nice looking too.

+1 for the BMR loop. I have one and it fits like a glove.

if you run faster then 13.99 on just about any drag strip, a driveshaft loop is required. i believe NHRA also requires them if you run slicks...

 

not to mention like alan said... doing the pole-vault at 100mph..

 

[Sam (Bones)]

do you want to buy one of those too????

[Jared Richey]

I'll be putting 2 of them on my car I'm building before I go drag racing. One in the front and one in the back.

Hey Jared, before you go buy one for the rear, it will be difficult to do. Since the rear end moves so much up and down, the loop would have to be very tall, which would catch anything that you drive over. As long as you do the front one, you'll be good to go. If the front u-joint breaks, it will be caught by the safety loop, if the rear joint breaks, you won't pole vault, the drive shaft will just drag or fall out.
