You could get by with an SFI-1 rating but SFI-5 is a lot more protection without a lot of extra bulk. And the -5 will still be good as you get faster and faster.
I'd get a pair of gloves too. If there's ever a fire, bare skin gets attacked first.
I had to wear a -20 suit in the funny car and was sure happy with that when we had the fire. I've seen slower cars hit walls and fire is ALWAYS a possibility.
