Adding a window/inspection hole in Quicktime or similar scattershield.

I guess I thought you raced your car. My mistake.
Bracket racing on weekends, correct.

This is why I am asking people in the know. To be honest I had thought the quicktime bell was overkill for my needs, erring on the side of caution. Rightly or wrongly, I viewed the recert on my bell a way for the manufacturer to claw more money from me, and perhaps not necessary in MY application. For a max effort racecar I wouldn't have asked, it would have been a given.
