Roll Bar question

[ss3011]

You don't need a window net unless your class requires a roll cage , or you have a certified cage and you are running faster than 9.99 secs or 135 mph .

IMO: If you have a cage, you are required to a have a window net. Also per Ihra rules, net must extend forward to within 2" of the farthest back portion of the steering wheel. Can't find NHRA ruling. Check a few cars for that one!

Yeah, I wouldn't have written that without looking it up in the NHRA rulebook . You can check it out in Section 20, page 32 , under "6.3 Window Net" . It might be different for IHRA .

I put window nets in all then Stock Elim cages I do .
Most do not use them ,as stated they are not being required to use them unless the cage is required to be certed .
