Default well boys....get out the depends..racers look here>>

"the same rule will apply for Super Gas, Super Comp, and any E.T. vehicle running 9.99 or quicker or 135 mph or faster."

Its a great idea,if they were cheaper than $700.00-$800.00 for a sfi spec

It makes clean up a lot quicker,but I have mixed fellings

doubt you'd see any of the local tracks enforcing it unless at a sanctioned event (i.e. NMRA, etc).

If they would just make the rotary guys use them, track days would be sooo much better

+1. On a TnT I doubt they'll be looking for it. Hell they don't even look for driveshaft loops, distance studs sticks out of lug, battery kill switch for relocated batteries, the list goes on. -Mark

Let me tell ya from experience, the diaper is well worth it just to keep the oil off your rear tires when you split a block!!!
