i was asking about the harness you said that you need to have a harness now, do you have to have one if you're 13.9 seconds or faster?

600.00? Which helmet were you looking at? I paid 235.00 for my Simpson Voyager SA2000. I also had a Simpson Bandit Snell 90 which I bought back in 1990 and it has lasted 15 years with a lot of heavy duty drag racing and still looks like new. Simpson is top quality.

Sorry about my poor explanation, what i was trying to say is that the harness rule apply now for faster times, I am not sure what times but I believe for 11.49 and faster but please don't quote me on this one.
Definately I was not refering to the usage of harness for 13.99 sec or faster. Again , sorry for the missunderstanding.

I overread the new 06 NHRA rules, I am very certain about the helmet rules, on the harness I am not 100% sure, perhaps anyone here runing 10's should be able to elaborate more.

Thanks!!
