You know, I wrote Infineon about that, about 6 months ago and never got a response. I'm wondering if even though the NHRA rules changed, if they won't keep the old rules at the track. Throw a post on here when Infineon and Sac make it official.
What does this consist of, a harness and helmet or just a DOT seatbelt: Beginning Jan. 1, 2005, a roll bar and an (----SFI 16.1 driver-restraint system----) will be mandatory on any vehicle running 11.49 or quicker and for convertibles running 13.49 or quicker.

I was under the impression that that was for the IHRA only but i guess it applies to the NHRA now.
Hope some day i can take advantage of that rule...

It did not say anything about pure stock? Are you reading the paragraph under Adjustments to ET Requirments?

Incorrect. IHRA utilizes their own standards!

This is correct. ANY car that is modified AT ALL is required to go by the old rules. 13.99 for my damn vert still requires a stupid roll bar.......

There isn't one damn IHRA track in California. IHRA is a participating member of SFI (as is NHRA) and SFI specs are referenced in the IHRA rulebook. The IHRA sanctioned facilities are:
