Short answer is because SCCA told me I had to have headlights to run that class, and that was the easiest way to do it.


long answer is because I built by own custom tube radiator and "headlight" mounting setup to run the radiator in a different position. I had to gut the stock headlight housing to get them fit and therefore cannot run OEM headlights anymore. Which at the time I didn't expect I would need headlights anymore but then SCCA's stupid classing rules came along and forced me to come up with something. We needed headlights for our champcar car anyway so it kinda worked out.
