Yeah, it seems I am bit outta date, and the Clutch bags are no longer legal for most classes and racing series, seems the only thing you can get any more is a Ballistic Blankets.
Come to think of it I have not seen one for sale in about 10 years. I guess with the cost of true scatter shields coming down and being more readily available the use of the old school bags is not longer as common as it once was.
Yeah Kevlar and other similar ballistic materials, I think they were original developed to meet a loop hole in rules regarding keeping clutch, flex plate, and fly wheel parts outta the cab, and keep shrapnel from shredding fuel lines and other critical things, but keep the weight down from the more traditional boiler plate scatter shieldLast edited by mrsleeve; 02-19-2010, 04:38 PM.The American Republic will endure until the day Congress discovers that it can bribe the public with the public's money. -Alexis de TocquevilleOriginally posted by Fusion

Yeah, I was gonna say pretty much everyone stays within class rules with a scatter shield. The only times I see "bags" are on period correct Nostalgia Dragsters.Comment
