Don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but I was buying new harnesses, window net, etc. all the new stuff that has to be replace every two years. The Representative/Owner of the safety equipment company had them already made for big block and small block and at a Racing Show I was at. He told me then that the work is in progress to adopt the rule for containing oil and parts.

No but some of the drivers should because of all the whining.

Another $$$ solution to a non existent problem.This is the dilemma we face in a free society.Someone capitalizes on a situation (oil downs) and to ensure business a push is made to expand the amount of customers.All good and well for those with the $$ and know how but a financial addition for some.How many bad oil downs have S/SS cars
made,say compared to Pro Mod and up classes?

I just received an email from our division director stating that 2011 10.99 and quicker will require a diaper.

This is for ED ,Just to set the record straight I started DRE before there were any rules for sportsman cars.We are sportsman racers that developed a low cost and light weight diaper originaly forS/C and S/G racers that wanted some extra protection I will agree there have been some peolpe in the saftey industry that have pushed the rules,but I am not one of them.The racing industry is like any other it has insider trading.DRE has developed diapers that will work on any car for a fair price.

I didn't single out anyone.Someone,somewhere saw the opportunity to expand the market to make it mandatory to use the diapers across the board,whether they are needed or not.Sportsman oil downs are not a major problem,especially in the lower classes.If the rule reads "optional" then fine.It's when it says mandatory that it becomes
a financially driven rule.
