Floyd,

I'm not complaining about anything. I don't know you, and have never seen your car. Obviously, having correct seats means a lot to many racers on this forum. Just because Stock has changed over the last 30 years (along with every since other racing class in existence) doesn't give you the right to make up rules as you go.

Do you mean like using aftermarket aluminum third member cases ?? :-)

This whole topic borders on the absurd. NHRA lets cars in that were never made with crate motors, blowers, 13:1 compression cnc ported heads, manifolds that look like sheet metal manifolds and they are busting somebody's balls for not having the correct year model seats. Are you guys paying attention. These new cars are 50 to 100 horsepower light and you all are worried about someone having the correct year model seats.

Greg , I agree with all you said, But that's one battle we can't win.

Well Travis I wish you could answer the question I asked you. Can we run a 67 year model bucket seat in a 67 Wagon in K/SA? You know the seat that was available to come in the car.

You guys arent reading the post correctly, the issue is they said we cant run any bucket seat in a car that it was an option.

Herb,
According to Pat. If it is correct year make and model it passes. I would get all of the documentation that shows it was a factory option and send it to him. His phone number is on my post. Of course this is for NHRA only.
