Re: High level brake light

This seems strange to me since I have a second 1990 which was top flighted at a NCRS National event with the same markings. This car was judged using the first edition of the manual. The second (current) edition is not worded clearly and could lead the judge to believe the ZR1s should be 4Y. If I remember correctly the ZR1s came down the same line at BG so it would not make sense they would use a different lense. I would like to get this corrected for any other ZR1s judged in the future. It appears they used this same lense from at least 1990 all the way to 1995. Thanks, John

Re: High level brake light
FWIW my '92 ZR-1 has DOT 86 and 1Y. It is VIN #0068 and currently has 106,500 miles.

Re: High level brake light
The Manual has been corrected for the next edition. It should by Guide 1Y not 4Y.

The question came up using the 1990 second edition manual which came out just recently. Are you saying it will be corrected in a future manual, say 3rd edition? Any idea when the new manual might come out? Just so you know, my car was judged last saturday by a NCRS regional director who interpreted the 2nd edition as saying the 1Y was not correct. Maybe you could post on the NCRS board this error to let all folks judging C-4s know should it be a while before the 3rd edition is published? Thank you, John Dergosits |

Re: High level brake light
Since the manual is going to be updated, then I believe the correct term for this light is Center High-Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL). That's right out of my 1990 Owners Manual.
Might as well be consistent between documents. |
