In support of Performance Driving Experience (PDE) events, permit these classes to utilize NASCAR style door bars on the passenger side.
3.1.3.3. in the TTR requires "a passenger seat with the same safety equipment as the driver."
A NASCAR style door bar is a significant piece of the driver's safety equipment. As the TTR currently stands my ITA prepared car could not be used in a PDE because the driver seat has NASCAR style door bars and the passenger seat does not.
Rather than changing the TTR rules to permit a lower standard for the passenger door bars than the driver side has - the T, SS and IT rules should be improved to permit the use of NASCAR style door bars on the passenger side of the vehicle.
With Regards,
Ed
