| Short Description | Clarify requirements for head restraints |
| Applicable Regulatory Document | General Competition (GCR) |
| Type of Rule Change | Modification |
| Section to be Added or Changed | 18.4 A. |
| Current Regulation | The use of a Frontal Head Restraint Device complying with FIA standards 8858-2002 or 8858-2010 or SFI Specification 38.1 is mandatory as of January 1st, 2012 for all Race, Time Attack and Vintage drivers |
| Proposed Regulation | The use of a Frontal Head Restraint Device complying with FIA standards 8858-2002 or 8858-2010 or SFI Specification 38.1 is mandatory as of January 1st, 2012 for all Race, Time Attack (with passing), Time Attack Unlimited Class, Hill climb and Vintage drivers |
| Reason for Rule Change | The majority of Time attack (no passing) classes (Sport, Tuner & Max) do not require a roll bar or roll cage. So there would be no possibility of installing the necessary driver restraints (harnesses) required for Frontal Head Restraints. |
