I agree. Probably incompetence on NHRA's part.
I'm sure the bottom line is a matter of following the money trail.
My 87 Mustang street car needs a roll bar if the air is good. (11.40's) I don't want the seat belt hassle, so no roll bar, and I only go when the air is bad. I have no problem with a roll bar and race belts, but just let me use them (race belts) for more than 2 years! I hardly ever run it.
But, I digress. I can't help myself when I see these roll bar threads.
