Re: Fasteners extending outside the FRAME PERIMETER

I have to agree, the rule does say that the frame perimeter is not determined by any bolts, fasteners, or rivets protruding from the frame at the bumper level. This would only prevent a team from extending their frame perimeter using dummy bolts, it mentions nothing about bolts outside of the bumper zone. I would have to assume that these would be illegal because of Rule G<30>.

I would try to keep any bolts, fasteners, or rivets that are outside of the bumper zone inside your frame perimeter, just to be safe!

Just my interpretation and $.02!
