Re: 2009 Rule Changes
Did anyone catch the wording in the "Windshield, Windows" and "Helmet" sections regarding blinders? It appears that any sort of helmet mounted blinders are OK as long as the driver thinks it's safe? Wasn't there some restriction on blinders attached to the helmet last year? I don't use one so I guess I don't have a dog in the fight. But the wording in these rules seems odd in that it seems to leave the decision about the safety of the blinder soley up to the driver. It's sort of like it's indemnifying NHRA from any incidents related to not being able to see where you're going with a cardboard box over your head as long as you think it's safe.
