Re: Bumper Question

Don,
The illustration in Figure 2013-01-15 is showing an illegal bumper. From the text immediately above..."To satisfy the 8 in. requirement for Corner A, there must be at least 8 in. of BUMPER in each direction. " I know this is confusing as many teams are measuring the Bumper segment but it is the Frame measurement that is the defining distance. However, the dimensions are only shown for the frame in the above Figure. One can think in terms of the bumper backing which is essentially the Frame.
