"I can't imagine any tech official not allowing a formed CM tubing that the seat would bolt to and that tubing could be welded or even bolted to the floor. It would be a much safer / secure mount. NHRA states "Driver’s seat tracks may be bolted down" - that's a great rule. However, as far as I know, all factory seat tracks are bolted down from the factory."

Jeff, there's no tellin' what that means, the way some of the rules and regs are written.
I think they may be trying to say that you can fix the adjusters so they don't slide.

I wonder how many of the "pro" group that are worried about their seats, have welded the adjusters or drilled them for a grade 8 bolt or two.
