Default Is this NHRA/ NDRA SFI legal?

Since we lowered my seat 3" people make fun of me. It doesnt help I am already short so do you think this is ok? Will I pass tech?

Art, they need to be certified legal by NHRA/NDRA as you know but you HAVE to use NHRA/NDRA VTEC legal tape so the inserts do not tear
