The tire rule is killing me though. the rule reads • No Back halved, Tubbed or Mini Tubbed vehicle allowed So if you can fit it within your stock fender wells and it has a D.O.T. stamp on it your good...... even if i run a tire that fits into the stock fender well im tubbed so my truck is put into the outlaw class.....SOOOO Im thinking of putting the tubs back stock... The rule dosent say anything about the rearend being narrowed. get some wheels with the right offset and go racing.... Now to my question. what is the biggest tire we can fit in the stock fender well. the key word is "in" Im not putting a straight axle in the front.. LOL
I kno wthis is off topic , but i have been wanting a class like this down here except the traction compound has to be over 200 wear rating . And no progressive or traction controls . You know just straight up street cars on straight street tires . Thought it would make for a fun class .
