Am just wondering why, it seems like NO one runs with these AMBER "rear safety-lites"..?? ALL off-road race vehicles are REQUIRED to have one on, whenever the engine is running!! :shock: :shock: .......WE have been told on a number of occasions that................" your car was sooo easy to see / follow....".. :clap: just curious........we run ours on the street, too..

We agree that having some sort of light on in the back that makes you more visible when running through silt and dust prone areas is a good thing. We have a white LED (I know, not the standard color), which is bright enough to catch anyone's attention. It flashes when driving, or it can be solid when backing up at night. And we get the same comments about being able to see the light even though the buggy is shrouded in dust.

We do not have amber lights facing towards the rear of our buggies. However, we do run 51/50 lighted whips and use them on and off road.
