My belts were accepted because they had an SFI tag punched with an acceptable date.. my helmet was accepted because it is Snell rated, not SFI rated..
I am attempting to return all my Impact stuff as it is all less than 3 weeks old and unacceptable without a letter.. my thought is, eventually the letter will also be unacceptable as the suit or gear may be more than a fews years old and just taken off of the shelf by someone with a Sharpee who puts a date on it.. NHRA Tech has this question in their minds and I'm not taking another chance..

Everybody should take their Impact jackets,pants,gloves,shoes, whatever and put it out at the track and sell the stuff to the spectators.Some of them love wearing this stuff.It will become the next trend,like wearing your pants 6" below the crack or wearing your hat backwards.Impact will become the new Nike of the advertising industry.
