Do you think the guys that have the SFI approved diapers will be out if/when SFI decides they are only good for a few years when they have inventory that may become outdated?
You want to point fingers then start with the SFI committee and then look at NHRA. It is the dealers and manufacturers that lose money when some of these ignorant changes take place.
I see what your saying but look at the increase in sales due to mandating the products. Look at the icrease in cost for the racers. I don't have a sponsor so it's my hard earned money. I think if they are good business men they would only disgard a few out dated products. Plus I have to discard my stuff when it's not unsafe. It's not gunna change no matter how long people talk about it or gripe about it.
Like they say Race or stay home. Hell they close so many tracks we probably won't have to worry about in the next 5 years or less.
