04/10/2026  As we continue to integrate some new safety rules into the OTTPA classes we will be confirming that all rollcages meet SFI 47.1A and 47.2A specs for large tractors and 47.3A for mini-rods. This includes how the NTPA and OTTPA rule books require a cage to be mounted to a chassis. Both rule books contain the same rules and requirements related to cages and mounting. Please refer to section 21.4 in the OTTPA rule book for all rules and regulations related to rollcages and mounting. Certification Sticker To keep things simple and clear we have selected that the NTPA rollcage sticker will be the only certification sticker that is accepted moving forward. The certification sticker will be good for a period of 5 years. If a cage currently has a valid and in-date NTPA certification sticker that sticker will be honored and no further action is needed. Any rollcage that does not have a valid NTPA certification sticker will need to have the rollcage and mounting inspected, once passed the cage will receive the NTPA rollcage certification sticker. We have started inspecting a few rollcages that had previously passed OTTPA inspection ahead of the season and found a few small issues here and there that would prevent the cage from passing the new inspection process. We will be asking competitors to address these issues before we supply them with the NTPA rollcage certification sticker to apply to their cage. These competitors will be provided with an OTTPA inspection sticker that will need to be in place until the changes are completed. Please note, if you had a rollcage that passed inspection in 2025, you will be allowed to pull in 2026. We are giving the 2026 pulling season to get any necessary changes made to meet the full requirements to get a rollcage NTPA certified. If you have any questions or concerns please contact Ryan Boysen, 712-880-0178, he is now our OTTPA Certified Rollcage Inspector. If a vehicle needs changes, we encourage a competitor to get the changes done as quickly as possible during the season. We do recognize that there may be changes that can’t be done quickly, therefore we are allowing a grace period for the 2026 pulling season. Starting in 2027 all vehicles will need to have a valid in-date NTPA rollcage certification sticker in place to be able to compete. Certification Process Inspections will take place at the first few pulls of the season, including Rock Valley, IA. We expect a high number of cages will need to be inspected early in the season. We encourage pullers that might be in close proximity to each other to coordinate and gather their vehicles at a single location prior to the season to allow an inspection to be completed more efficiently in one place to save some time later. Please coordinate this with Ryan Boysen. Certification Fee Outlaws have not charged for a rollcage certification in the past. Now that the inspection and certification will also be valid for NTPA competition we will be charging a $50 fee for the certification during the 2026 pulling season. The certification will be good for 5 years. This is a discounted rate from the normal fee that is charged by NTPA. If the cage was initially inspected in 2026 but updates or changes were needed and those updates were not done until the 2027 pulling season, the $50 fee will be honored for a passed inspection in 2027. Seatbelt / Driver Restraint A reminder that you will need to make sure that you have a SFI 16.1 five-point driver restraint installed if your vehicle requires a roll cage. These driver restraints should be in good working condition with no defects. The expiration date on them will not be enforced but you may be asked to replace them if a tech official determines that they would not work properly. [...]Read more...

If you wish to collect NTPA Grand National or Regional points, your vehicle(s) must be registered with NTPA. If you wish to collect Outlaw Series points, your vehicle(s) must be registered with OTTPA. But you will not be required to purchase an additional competition license. Please note that participation in NTPA Grand National events does require entry in advance through the “NTPA” app, available through the app store on your phone. All Grand National entries must be received by 12pm EST on Monday prior to the event. For OTTPA events, you can register at any time using the “Outlaw Pulling” app which is also available through the app store on your phone, or register on-site at the OTTPA entry trailer.
