I have only driven the car for about 100 miles, I’ve only raced it once just to get a 1/4 mile time. It was not on a dragstrip, and I was running pump gas and just a set of BF Goodrich sport tires. My time? 10.25 seconds. With myself and one passenger (175 + 150=325 pounds of passengers).

🤣

Once you reach a certain time/speed aren’t you required to have a 5 point harness instead of a regular seat belt?

The car is not running 100% like when I got it, my guess is that some kind of sensor is malfunctioning, but I don’t really have the time or mechanical ability to fix it myself, and because I put myself in great debt to buy it, I can’t hire someone to do it, so I’m probably losing this car over a $100 fix, but I don’t even know where to start looking for the problem. The car still runs and drives fine and will probably outrun anything out there, but it just gets a little fussy every now and then, and is difficult to start. Even though it is driveable, I will not permit it to be driven away from here. Since I don’t know what the problem is, I don’t want it to be driven far before it is solved, so the car must be shipped or trailered.

required with a rollcage, unless not specified by your class regulations. Otherwise, the restraint system must be equipped with an accepted quick-release type drivers seat belt. IHRA rules.
