What precisely is required? I’m hoping that I can bolt on some right side restraint on to a Sparco seat, but it’s hard to figure out what I can do if I can’t find the place that discusses exactly what is required.
Right-side nets and seat halos....why?

Hi Scott,
In SpecE30 regulations there isn’t requirement that you have to have a seat with halo. Take a look at regulation

9.3.13.1. Driver and passenger seat may (3.1) be replaced (3.5) with any race seat, unless specified in these regulations.[/quote]
Now there are some NASA regulations (SE30 sanctioning body) with regards seat certification (age, bracing, etc.), but none that requires halo [there is some discussion/changes regarding right side net with or without halo IIRC…] ). A lot of racers are using seats with halo for personal safety reasons - my car (well car being built) will have a seat with halo AND right side net.
HTH,
Igor
