Got the prototype cables made, two versions, any length. Big clamps to anchor them. Sending them to NHRA for approval. Now the important thing. How yall gonna ship the beer I want to swap for the things? And just how much beer would you be willing to supply for a set of high quality, Stainless, NHRA approved Cajun Connectors. Quantity discounts available.

I heard we need tethers.

Now we need "Theathers"

Where will it end?

Cajun Connectors are Theathers, and you now have to send more beer.

Jeff I thought it was "theathus"?? Remember, you and Sid taught me how to speak Cajun a long time ago. And I can supply beer so special you won't have enough theathus to overcome the addiction. Now I need to buy headers for some cars I can't afford to put them on

Jim I believe it was posed here a few weeks ago that one of the companies was adjusting the retail pricing of theirs, and giving refunds for the difference for people who paid the higher price.

You are correct Karen. They reduced their $250 tethers to $200. Still twice the price as advertised above. Jim

I knew the price on these things would come down. Andrew priced the pieces out from a specialty hardware retailer and came up with $44, buying everything retail one at a time. NHRA now needs to let us buy our own pieces like we do with any other part that's not a Sfi part.

So the $80 weld on NHRA approved tether has tabs and a stainless steel braided string in between them.
Somebody want to explain to me how that is better than welded on tabs with bolts or springs between the tabs that is no longer NHRA legal? I thought the whole problem was tabs that break!
Obviously it's not about safety.
