Hey guys I got a few newbe questions about taking my truck to the track.It's nothing special.A 69 c-10 with a vortec headed 350 in it.Still street tires.Plan on running somewhere between a 14-17 second pass.I have no clue what it will run.

Anyway I will going to gateway in st louis and I understand there pretty strict on the tech inspection.Have a few questions.

My truck has a fuel cell in the bed.Will I need a ground strap from the top of the fuel cell to the truck?Also what kind of vent is accepted.Right now it has a peice of rubber hose looped twice and then it points down.Will this pass?Also it has 1/2 inch rubber line that runs from the fuel cell to an aluminum 1/2 inch line that runs along the frame.Is it alright to have that rubber line?

What about a radiator catch can.Right now it doesn't have one...

Will I need a helmet even though the truck is so slow?

I am sure I will think of something else later.But this should get it going.I can't wait to go.Tommorow I am going to finish up some loose ends on the truck.And finish getting it ready.

It doesn't leak oil.And it doesn't run hot at all.Mainly I am worried about getting through tech.And if that happens then I will worry about hooking up!


Thanks for any advice.

You'd get by at I57 just fine. Just make sure you don't come down on a Friday that it's bikes only.
