Re: legality of bolt and screw heads breaking plane of chassis meeting bumpers

I'm sorry to keep dwelling on this topic, but does anyone know the intent of this rule? What changed from last year to this year, or any other year that made this rule need to be changed?

I can't see anything harmful about having a bolt extend a little underneathe the bumpers. The only thing I can see is if they were sharp, but that is covered in R-04 and thus shouldn't make a difference in the determination of this rule.

(That said the rules are the rules and we have to follow them, I'm just curoius if anyone knows the intent)
