Title: trackday and headlight
Post by: DucHead on July 10, 2008, 03:09:32 PM
In preparation for Cornerspeed shcool, should I disconnect my headlight, or just tape over the lens?

Thanks,
  Dave

For the sake of two bolts, take it off. Those lights ain't cheap.

Slight threadjack: When are you taking Cornerspeed?  Are you going Monday for the Full Course?  If you are, Stillie and I will see you there!

seriously, if you're gonna go through the effort to tape it and disconnect it, just unbolt it and save yourself a $600 liability.  It's two allenheads (8mm, i think) and less time than it took to tape ;)

I unplugged it and taped it.

The track day (Cornerspeed School actually) was the most fun you can have with clothes on!!!

W00t!!!  ;D   [evil]
