Look around this thread for a minute. When you see a WFA winner saying his interpretation of the rule is correct with "absolute certainty", and he turns out to be wrong, something has gone terribly, terribly awry.

I can tell you that because that's exactly what common sense told me. The bolt protruding rule was to allow to help with bumper attachment and support. How does a bolt protruding 4" of the ground hamper mounting bumpers? So why would it be allowed?

I have nothing but respect for PC and have learned much from him over the years. Just because he is a WFA doesn't make him always correct.
