I am in the process of getting my Sadev installed after taking 2 seasons off of road racing and doing gokart racing instead.
One item I need to replace is my seat belt harness.
It used to be the rule that there was a manufacturing date on the belt and good for 5 years.
Now I read that belts per SFI16.1 expire as quick as 2 years and FIA belts after 3 years. Expiration dates are now shown on the belts rather than manufacturing dates.
I am a little surprised and disappointed by that new rule, or am I missing something here?
Of course money is what I am concerned with (Grass root racer) and also a little bit of wasting/ throwing away good components.
Is it just SSCA and the industry telling me that I should better keep racing gokarts
