    That was my husband in the first photo. Worked there long ago. Something he was very proud of. He was a carbon fiber pro.

    They should make a ten layer peel off inner wheel well kit. Sorta like the face screens they make for dirt track racers.

    Spray pledge on to the inner wheel well before each run and rubber will never stick to it😎 make sure to not get it on the tire🤨

    Would there be any negative effects of having to big of a tub?

      Less room in the car

    • @magnus5356
      @magnus5356 Před 5 lety

      True Kerry. But that's not really an issue in a Pro-mod style chassis. I'm thinking more if you buy a car built for big tires but want to run small. Aerodynamics under the car must be affected some..?

    • @bretlambky
      @bretlambky Před 5 lety +1

      I wonder if a reducer of some sort would work. Like a plug that covered part of the lower wheel well. With even an air foil to divert air flow without creating lift or drag.

      Bret Lambky there’s this thing called a rule book

    • @bretlambky
      @bretlambky Před 5 lety +1

      Groom Lake depending on the class your racing in, rules vary.
      I am well aware of the NHRA and IHRA guidelines.
      My statement was simply a suggestion for potential resolutions given the correct approval
      Thinking outside of the box never hurts.
