- Hi Scott, Last time I looked a WING was not allowed in Altered Classes We spent considerable time building an adjustable all aluminum spoiler, with an awful lot of TIG welding in it, for our Black Ra

- Glad you commented on this, Bruce. I was planning on an extra gas tank for water in the trunk. B_A_D, huh? I can mount it where the back seat was just as well, so here again, I've learned by somebody

- I know race cars the need to turn quickly need a low polar moment so that there is less inertia to overcome when turning. I thought on the other hand that cars that need to go straight benefit from a

- Not only polar moment, but don't forget CG. Got to keep the CG AHEAD of the center of pressure too, or around she goes. Dale C. I know race cars the need to turn quickly need a low polar moment so th

- Yes, Dale, you want the CG up front, and I believe the low polar moment, necessary in helping circleburners through the turns, is a definite asset in keeping the car on its straight path when it want

- True enough. But under real-world conditions, for any length of time ... I think you'd be the first. DC :) She won't go round if you keep her balanced on the center of pressure but I'm not sure haw y
