Headlight and Marker Light Covers, Mounting, and Gaps
#33724 from Bill Lamkin · No action required · Minutes (2023-03 Fastrack)
Thank you for your letter. It is believed that the rules are adequate as written. It is ultimately the competitor’s responsibility to
adhere to them in an appropriate and reasonable manner, and be able to defend the modifications they have made to their car
versus the rulebook. It is clearly defined what lights can/must be removed, that the resulting holes left after the removal of
these lights must be covered with a screen/panel, and how that screen/panel can be contoured. A reasonable interpretation
would be to ensure that the screen/panel closely replicates the shape and location of the light(s) it is replacing, and that the
stock shape and profile of the vehicle remains intact. But again, it is ultimately the competitors responsibility to defend the
legality of their car versus the rules and how they are written.
