Hey all,
I'm just curious about some regulations that need to be met in certain classes of drag racing at ANDRA-sanctioned tracks and events. If enough knowledge is gathered here, perhaps this thread could become one very useful place for people interested in beginning drag racing
If so, I will add people's information to this post as it comes to hand.

Any car running nitrous must have yellow stickers on the front and rear (windscreens..?) of the car for officials to see, and must also have a blue light to indicate when the system is armed inside the car.
