N/S Bell housing requirement?

[bpete]

Thanks for confirming.

I understand the reasons for good quality components in the clutch department.

I found it a bit odd that factory seat belts were still allowed but SFI bell housings, clutch and flywheel are required.

I’m not sure I understand allowing factory belts and no roll bars if you’re going to require SFI bell housing and clutch parts.

You would be best off with a good roll bar and harness. That's a hold over from years back when a N/S car was no where near as fast as they are now. Plus you might be paired up with an 8 second car in the other lane at some point.

It's an RPM thing. Those "low HP combos" can still wind up pretty high. Especially a clutch car. There are 4 cylinders in SS winding 9K.

And do get a 5 point harness and roll bar. You can't put it in after you get run over by a 150 mph car.
