Default 10 year FIA belts

a reputable agency in Australia concluded that it is safe to allow FIA belts to be used for 10 years

Wanna bet that SFI won't budge on their contrived 2 year dating? There is nothing in the SFI or FIA standards that stipulates that certain webbing material be used, to justify any difference.
cheers,
bruce

thats why I buy FIA belts, but it'd be nice to see them "last" twice as long
