This safety equipment is designed to
automatically deploy a vehicles
parachutes and shut down both the
ignition and fuel systems in the event
of a catastrophic failure. Improved
driver safety is the haul mark of this
technology. |
| IHRA Australia
has made it compulsory to use the
Electrimotion Safety system in Top Fuel,
Pro Alcohol and Pro Slammer vehicles,
and it is MANDATORY for all vehicles
running an ET quicker than 6.50 sec (1/4
mile) or 4.15 1/8 mile. This common sense safety and
implementation of technology already
available to the Racing Industry and
ensures that we consider safety to all
our competitors as the speeds of
vehicles start to push World Record
performances that we are constantly
seeing in the 400 Thunder Professional
Drag Racing Series. |

Electrimotion is not to be used as the
primary activation of parachute
(referred to as "driving into the
chutes". This is not the intention of
the system; this is for emergency
situations to provide a secondary back
up when a driver is incapacitated.
Drivers should always be responsible for
the activation of the chutes, fuel and
ignition shut off under their own
actions. Drivers should always operate
the vehicle naturally and not rely on
automation. IHRA Technical can at any
time review/request your data to ensure
that ELECTRIMOTION is used
appropriately. Penalties will be put in
place of the ELECTRIMOTION system is not
used correctly to the manufacturer’s
instructions. |
