Topic: Fuel Cell/Firewall/Mirror Issue
Upon re-reading the rules we are trying to make the most sence of our fuel cell/fire wall/rearview mirror dilema prior to arriving at tech in Houston. Our vechicle is a 68 VW baja bug that we have put a fuel cell in the area that would be the rear passanger seat area (This is typical on all Score Class 5 cars. The fuel cell is not FIA Compliant but is a metal enclosed Poly tank that is completely caged in the car and secured well enough to race off road. Last year we quickly put a stop sign in the car to accoplish the fire wall requirement with some additional sheet metal. This year we want to make sure we have the proper fire wall, but also realized that if we build a full fire wall we won't have a way to see behind us? Do we need a fire wall? If so do we also need to make provisions to see behind us ie a plexiglass window? We have some extra road signs for this year to use as a fire wall so let us know what we should be doing.
