Haven't seen the new rulebook but have heard the hex shaped hubs are to be replaced by the splined version, does this apply to everyone?

if you shake the tires the pin can fall out of the hexed one.

I took a splined hub that had a removable pin out and replaced it with a hex that had a button on it...

Please don't tell me I have to change it again....

Just looked in the IHRA Ruel book in several sections (T/S, QR, Gen Regs, And General Saftey) no mentions in any of them about a steering hub.
