window net
just tried to download nhra rulebook. that was a no go. thanks for another great enhancement! anyway, I have a mesh net that is due to expire soon, I know some rules were changed about the expirations of the ribbon style, can someone post the window net page from the rulebook for me please? I don't think I would buy another mesh if a ribbon is lifetime now....

Re: window net
Here you go....just copied from the electronic rulebook.
6:3 WINDOW NET
An SFI 27.1 ribbon-type or mesh-type window net is mandatory on any full-bodied car running 7.49 (*4.49) or quicker. For full-bodied cars running 7.50 (*4.50) to 9.99 (*6.39) or if vehicle runs 135 mph or faster, a ribbon-type or SFI 27.1 mesh-type window net is mandatory unless otherwise specified by Class Requirements. SFI 27.1 window net, when required, must be updated at two-year intervals from the date of manufacture. Window net must be securely mounted on the inside of the roll cage, with the permanent attachment at the bottom. All attachment points must be designed in an attempt to protect the driver and avoid contact with track surface or guardwall. Eyelet clips, dogleash hardware, hose clamps, etc. prohibited. Penetration of webbing, except as performed per manufacturer’s instructions, prohibited. Any other modification to net must be performed by manufacturer.

Re: window net
thanks, if I am reading this right, a non tagged ribbon net is good forever (in an 8 sec car) but a tagged mesh net is only good for 2 years. most ribbon nets are tagged sfi 27.1 would they be ok forever or because of tag, only 2 years?

Re: window net
They changed to 2 year rule on the ribbon style net back to how it used to be. They do not expire.
