I would suggest with NHRA’s new reduced - tech inspections policy they consider accepting safety belts for the whole calendar year and not just on the given month, like they do with SNELL helmet certification. I.e. if manufactured in June then allow two years + 6 months > December that year. A few times in the past if my belts expired in the middle of season I have forget until receiving a friendly reminded during tech inspection that they are getting close. Would be a little inconvenient in staging lanes during a random tech inspection if found they have expired.
In the now famous words of Hillary “What difference does it make anyway?” a few months in a belts life that is!
