[Fot] Used / dated racing belts

[Rocky Entriken]

IMHO, depends on whom it's sold to. As in, what are the rules of the 
activity your buyer intends?

I have sold outdated racing harnesses to autocrossers, rules for which have 
no expiration dates. The harness is still dated (don't take the tag off!). 
If the guy tries to take it racing, a tech inspector will (should) check it. 
Caveat emptor! Many times the autocrosser just wants to "update" from the 
car's OEM belts.

FWIW, I went racing (SCCA) in 1977-80. Then "life" intruded and I didn’t 
race again until 1995. I autocrossed that whole time using belts dated 1977. 
Had to buy new ones in '95, and every three years after that.

Maybe I’m just paranoid from 51 years of defending law suits, but I would be 
very cautious about giving/selling outdated safety equipment.
