I was thinking the same thing. You have to wonder if they (Impact) realize they are fighting a losing battle. SFI has already stated that ALL IMPACT gear will no longer be certified after june 22nd and Impact will be dropped from the SFI program. So I guess the helmet will no longer be useful as well as the stuff people just bought this year.

What pisses me off is, now Impact wants the customer (me) to do all their leg work....
WUWT?

Here is what I don't get. Impact says that they will sell you a replacement at a discounted rate. However SFI states that after June 22 2010 All products will decertify and Imapct will be out of the SFI program. So if you give Impact more money you get to use the new product for 2 months and then you will have ot go out and buy new stuff again from another vendor? How stupid do these people think we are?

Called Summit today about my Impact fire suit. Had bought it in January 09... NHRA Div 1 said it would not be allowed as it was most likely made in 2008. After giving the Summit pro shop my invoice numbers I was informed that they would exchange it for another Impact suit or any other brand that I wanted. I like the Impact Nomex version and wanted similar..but they were out of that particular type in my size from a few other manufacturers...and I did check on their website before I called them. NHRA said the new Impact suit should have a date of manufacture on it and if it didn't to keep the 2010 receipts on hand at the races. I also asked Summit if there was a similar issue in the future with Impact would they honor the exchange...I was informed that at anytime in the future if this happened again they would give me another exchange for any other brand. This is how you keep your customers.....Thank You Summit Racing Equipment.

Have to also thank the NHRA Division 1 office for their advice to call Summit...had read that most racers were getting snubbed when it came to returning product to certain companies so I figured I wasn't going to get anywhere..Thanks Dave.

I called JEGS since I received Impact Jacket and Pants for x-mas in 08 and they said to send back the product with no problem and they would exchange the pieces at no Cost. Just wanted to thank Jegs for the superior customer service and the ease of doing business with them
