Attention : Dated Race Belts
« on: June 25, 2005, 09:09:52 AM »
Guys just wanted to inform you that the 2 year old rule is no longer in effect in NHRA rules. Before if you had 2 yr old belts they are no longer allowed to be used on a car at an NHRA track.

Well now there are no limits to the age of the race belt as long as you are under 11.49sec. Sorry point blank you gotta get belts every 2 yrs but for the most of us we are not in this category. So buy a race belt and use them for years of use.

just talked to the tech at mission on friday

Thats a good idea.
The 2 year rule seems a bit ridiculous even for the faster guys here in Canada,... since our racing season is so short anyways.
