Quote: Charlie did you ever get a reply back on this seat belt issue. Racing belts "upgrade" obviously seems to be safer than a 40 year old set of OEM belts!
Actually, NO. I had forgotten about this. I never got a reply back. At my local track (Gainesville Raceway) The tech inspector requires that my "racing" belt be within the dates range. Which mine are, for now.

One other thing tech guys require at sometracks anyway is a driveshaft loop if you run a slick reguardless of ET. |

Updating this old thread. I never did hear back from NHRA about the seatbelt date issue. BUT: I was reading the 2010 NHRA rule book, looking for something else, and found on Pg 20.37 "general regulations", 10:5 "Driver restraint systems". "in cases where the class does not require a SFI 16.1 driver restraint system, the two year recertification does not apply". So most of us can run a "racing" belt, that is more then two years old. (basically, as long as we don't have to run a roll bar or cage) Many part time racers do not carry a rule book with them, so I listed the reference page/section of the rule book, so if a tech inspector questions an "out dated" belt you can point it out in his book. I would suggest keeping this info in the car. |
