I ran 10.90 with no cage. They usually dont care unless you are racing someone. You also get bonus points for driving. :)

This was a long time ago, but I was running bottom 11ns without a cage and they told me if i dipped into the 10ns I would have to have a cage. By the end of the night they told me I would have to have a cage if I came back. This was on a thursday night. Also I have been 9ns with just a 6pnt and they didnt say a word to me. The 11ns were 11.10ns 11.0hs.

You will have to take your chances. The first time I ran 11.30's when the 302 was still in the car, I got the boot for no 5 point seat belt harness in the car. I had a cage but only the stock seat belt and was told to park it. This was on a test/tune Sunday in January of 2010.

Pretty sure I pulled off a 150mph pass there and they never said anything about safety gear.
