"still-born" rally project into IT car?

Good point, but isn't there also a lifetime requirement on these, like a brace is require once they're 5 yrs old or something?

according to FIA, yes. (well, it's expired, and no longer homologated unless recertified) PCA and some other orgs DO enforce the age rules by forcing the addition of a back brace or whatever as they require for non FIA seats. In SCCA this is not enforced, but we have goofy mounitng rules that change our acceptance fo the homologation. I have significant issues with the seat rules.

Not to dispute what Chip says, but I can say that Waterford does still monitor that rule, so if you're expecting to run it there, you will need to plan that.

Of course, it doesn't need to be bolted to the seatback, and can take the form of u-clamps for adjustment, which can conveniently be set up to telescope if needed...

I'm planning on running Waterford so it's a necessary item.
