Well... not quite.



I've always felt like this should include deleting external mirrors but the actual rule just allows you to use alternate mirrors. i.e. for the exterior, a smaller formula mirror in the same location as stock OR the stock components. Unfortunately the letter of the rule doesn't reference complete removal only substitution.

Disagree. The rule says ANY...and it doesn't list a location...nor mention any stock item. .....if it says you can, you bloody well can.
I like to mount mine inside the outermost rub point of the car...they last longer that way.

And I disagree with ya'. It is an allowance (just like any other) to deviate from the default, stock parts. Iif it doesn't say "any location" then you can't change the location... same thing with removal (if it doesn't say you CAN then you CAN'T). By your logic, I could add the XYZ widget to my engine simply b/c it doesn't say that I can't.

I guess you can protest me if were ever at the same race together. You sure will look funny when you lose the protest.

I had the outside mirror removed on the passenger side of my ITS RX7 and a tiny wink mirror on the driver side. I recall a bunch of young men at tech a few years ago who were training as stewards jumping all over me and saying my car would not get its annual stamp.

Sr. tech guy came by and said it was all good...

(hey Dan, you get all titled up OK?)

Riiiiight. Again, I think the spirit and intent of the rule is to allow removal/replacement/relocation of mirrors... I just don't see how the existing rule allows for it.

Christian, who doesn't have an external mirror on the passenger side of his car even though there was one stock.
