Track cars question ??
When ever i see a picture in someones sig or just a general picture of there car going round a track there is nearly always a head light missing?
Also if there the right on is missing the left one has black tape on it which leads me to belive the tape was shit and it fell off
This is a daft question i know but its bugging me
Cheers ben

people generally remove theheadlight to get a good flow of air straight onto the filter
and i believe the tape is in case the lens breaks through contact with other cars etc, it holds the glass and stops it fragmenting all over the track

also there are some modifications that you can do to allow all that nice hot air to escape from under the bonnet .. without lifting the back of the bonnet

I was advised to do this at the last track day - and space the back of the bonnet up with washers but i don't think i'll bother unless i have an actual track car to use in the future
