Sneaking in without a roll cage

For those that have seen my build - it's centered around being a sleeper first and foremost. But since I now I have 600+ HP at the crank it's gonna throw down some decent times at the strip. I REALLY REALLY don't want to put a cage in it, but I'd like to see what it could do on a prepared surface.

Help a guy out who doesn't know the rulebook - am I just going to have to lift every time and keep it over 11.50 (?). I also have a battery relocation to the trunk, but no external cutoff switch.

These are all NHRA rules, but are there tracks that are more loose with the rules?

Thanks!

Best to just do it right, safety kinda matters.
I absolutely believe in over building a car.
Or put some skinny tires on it and don't get traction
