Header Tethers - Jury IN or OUT

Jim Wahl · 01-29-2014, 10:07 PM

I'm thinking NHRA didn't tell these manufacturers that they needed etched I.D. proof on every piece of the tethers. This deal certainly isn't the fault of the tether manufacturers. Once again we have seven divisions with seven different ideas of how one rule should be implemented. It's the computer age guys! Lack of communications strikes again! Jim

I have to believe that, "every" manufacturer seeking approval submitted a sample of "every" model to NHRA for approval and that NHRA, subsequently, issued the approvals based on the samples submitted. I further doubt that "any" of the approved manufacturers would then, on their own, deviate from the approved sample that they had submitted by altering the product shipped to their customer. Following that logic only leaves the possibility of a lower level official adding his or her own interpretation to the approved description and none of us have ever even heard of that happening. LOL
