Wow, I like it. I'm with you. It's not like YOUR window net is protecting the NHRA. I guess some racers don't care if they have a left arm.

I verified it with Jay.....the rule goes back to the way it was for 7.50 and slower cars.....effective 3-5-12

No you don't have to have your net recerted every 2 years....

Which one needs recertified every two years? ribbon or mesh?

That figures, I just bought a new one to replace the perfectly good one I already had. Oh well!

It looks like SS/JA, SS/J & GT/HA, GT/H and lower don't require a roll cage....

If a roll cage is installed in a car that doesn't require a cage is the window net not mandatory and the car can be run with a cage and no window net AND THE NET DOESN'T NEEDE A RE-CERT??????????

That looks OK to me and it looks like that is what the rulebook says......

Ed it looks like the tech crew at Houston got it wrong if you ran SS/J or GT/K...

Bob
Correct. SS/JA is not required to have a cage, so if it is run with a cage it does not have to have the window net installed, unless of course you run quicker than 10.00. Raced all over the place and my not having net has never been mentioned.
'Course, I've never been in the nines like Gary Emmons. LOL

Believe it or not ....the mesh was always supposed to be recerted every two years....but if you have a ribbon style....its good indefinitely.......

So nothing has changed. I wonder how much money the safety manufacturers made on ribbon style recerts before they "amended" the rule. Mike

I was thinking the same thing.

Thanks Rock for that info, I was about a week away from ordering my new one, mines a custom size so the 25-55- dollar deal doesn't go for me. Don't mind spending money on things that are needed but find it hard to throw perfectly good stuff in the trash. Now if they would come to their senses on the seat belts........ Joe
