No tubes or screws!

A simple fix to running slicks tubeless, is to coat the inside of your sidewalls with green "DAWN" dish soap. Let them dry for a couple of hours, then give them a second coat. Try it, doesn't cost much, and sure works for us. Eddie Rezac

Your right Eddie! We started doing our slicks like that back in the '70's, works like a charm!

No need for bead locks or glue. I always mark my tires at the valve core. Have seen a little movement (one inch or so) the first one or two passes, then none. 14 to 16 psi. I can't speak for bias tires, but I have not had a radial leak for a few years now. I have seen guys with screws leak a little at the screws.

Interesting link, but a BAZILLION cars have run down the drag strip with no problems. Why does he mention that racers seeking e.t. are "ok" with no tubes? Think he wants to sell tubes? Can't blame him. But, quicker is quicker, no matter what the class.
