Here is the last part of the notice from the NHRA announcement on 6 April 2011 -
"must bring their vehicle into full compliance with NHRA rules and regulations prior to their next event."
Here's the same section from the referenced blog -
"must bring their vehicle into full compliance with NHRA rules and regulations; prior to their next event."
Notice the semi-colon? Do these two paragraphs mean the same thing? So if they find a aluminum center-section, you have to remove it before you are allowed to race again OR you can't race again until you remove it?
The existing rule was interpreted one way, and the "book" was changed to reflect that interpretation. Clear as mud to me!!
