I did look at the rule book and it says effective 1-1-2024.
I guess the rumor was out at the Phoenix National earlier this week.
Some racers not to happy about it.
The restraints are expensive and NHRA is giving some the reason to pass on some of the classes.
I have used one since the racing accident death of a friend coming up 10 years ago in April which a head and neck restraint I believe would have saved his life.
I still think of him often.
I believe they are worth the cost at whatever to save your life if something bad happens.
My 10 cents since inflation.
