Header Retention Rule Revision

SStockDart · 03-01-2014, 09:56 PM

I was walking through the staging lanes when Super Comp was staged....Apparently they do not have to have header teathers....Very few, I would say one in ten, have teathers. Guess rules are different for different classes. Please note, I did not see any collectors on any super comp cars that were not secured properly.....I'm just saying....no teathers.

I am down to crunch time trying to finish my wagon. Our chevelle needs a set of tethers. I don't like be hassled in tech therefore I try and do as I am told.
I called Scott with collector tethers last night 7 o'clock my time. He took my measurements. I will have a set waiting on me in South Georgia I really appreciate him. There's nothing better than a company makin sure you get your stuff.
If you are on the fence still like I was and don't want no hassles collector tethers can eliminate that.

What Rick asked....were the collectors welded to the primary tubes? If so they don't require tethers, if they just had the interfacing tabs with bolts/nuts or springs I'd love to know how D7 is so different than everywhere else (geography excluded of course)??

we'll have a few extra sets of tethers with us at Valdosta if anyone need them.
