A million years ago, I played with "welding spiders" in a FWD car. That won't happen again. |

They do make LSD for these to. That would ruin the nickel part. We use spring rubbers on the dirt to make the car turn. Tom

Aren't welded spider gears illegal? I wouldn't want to be on either end of that law suit. (The one that could ensue when an accident occurs because a weld or gear broke.)

Re: Not for Nuthin' But Close!
They do it a lot in the fwd Dirt cars, never ever hear of anybody breaking one. Seen a bunch blow the the trans apart from the spiders spinning and cutting the pin in half. For setup you run less air from left to right for stager to go around corners and with the gears harder than the shaft it eats it up. For some of the rwd classes they have to run a mini spool with just the pin making it solid. If you work on the PS a little it does not take away any hp. 99 % of the all the dirt cars and nascar run PS. Its a old wise tail now days. How many time do you hear that somebody lost there PS and fell back out of contention, back in the day when nobody had it took a man to drive 500 miles. Tom

Tom, I know that dirt tracks can get really "sticky" but, as I'm sure that you know, it's nothing like a "glued concrete" starting line. And there's not much need for P/S on a drag strip. Taking off the P/S pump and laying it aside was worth .08.
