***David, if it's such a critical safety item***

James, three comments for you & a thought.

A. I said the cut off switch is a safety item.......... As where it's listed in the ITCS. You say its a "critical safety item."

B. Some people don't feel it's required to repair crash damage.

C. Some people don't feel it's required to leave the heater core in an IT race car.

If we add up all the items (not just these three items) that people feel are not required for IT race cars we will have Production class race cars. Or maybe by time the list is complete we'll have GT class race cars. IMHJ You (& others) arguing that a pass on a cut off switch (listed as a safety item) is ok is just like the Production car people arguing that Production class race cars should only be required to have a roll bar rather than a roll cage because that's al that open wheel cars are required to have. If you want to argue/compare IT rules to other car class rules write letters of change to the CRB because arguing/comparing on the site will get you NOTHING.
