3 year flexplate rule
When did the three year flexplate rule for stock eliminaator come up. Looks to me like they should have put it in the stock section of the rule book instead of a chart at the back of the book.'

As Rick Winchester stated months ago,a knee jerk reaction to something that rarely happens. We are RACING and Racing can be dangerous. :);)

Re: 3 year flexplate rule
Are we to expect all speed warehouses to keep their flexplate inventories having fresh dated wheels .. dont need to be buying a flexplate thats been sittin on a shelf that does not give me a full 3 year expiry .. we go thu that full expiry deal when buying seat belts also ... is nhra tech going to start crawling under cars with their flashlight looking at SFI dated tags ?

Yes Mike dealing with a manufacturer direct I think their parts pickers would be aware of expiry tags but a big speed warehouse parts picker mite not be aware of fresh dated inventory .. to them its just a part # on a box

Last flex plate I ordered from Summit was dated three months prior to when I ordered it/it arrived. Lame and gay.

Re: 3 year flexplate rule
I guess I’m lucky. I just ordered belts from Simpson through Holley. And I got a couple extra months on my expiration. Not to side track. But I can sorta see on belts and flexplates a little. They gotta have a one size fits all rule. And most of us keep our cars inside and they travel in an enclosed trailer. But what about the guy whose car sits outside with the windows down. (Yes it happens) you gotta have a rule that covers that guy too. As for the flexplate. You got one guy that races like crazy several nights a week and goes rounds. vs guys who’s flexplate could last forever because they only race once or twice a year. Gotta have a rule that covers both. Because we have gotten away from personal responsibility and into suing everybody when something happens. But where I think it’s nuts is transmission shields and flywheel shields. How does a piece of aluminum or steel just go bad. Because it was bolted on the car. Unless something gernades how can that ever be damaged or worn out? Now that’s a waste of money. But it keeps the contingency sponsors in business so I guess it’s not all bad.
