Tow hubs would be easy to make nowadays with a lot of cars having sealed front wheel bearings that bolt to a flange on the spindle. Wheels with a ton of backspace are also simple to get.

I still have my set of NMW tow hubs, haven't used them since 1982 !

Hey guys, I hate to hijack this thread, but I'm going to do a "Live From" at the 4 Wide if you don't mind.

Here is my new ace photo specialist Sal Biondo with the eye in the sky photos of zMAX Dragway. Sal could not resist this photo op as he flew over the track.

The next set of photos are Ron Matcham's 1965 one owner Shelby GT 350. Ron's here racing his CJ, but will stick around next week for the 50 anniversary of the Mustang and will be part of the show.

The Shelby is very cool and perfect in everyway, just like it rolled of the showroom in 1965.

Good morning Ken,
Re-take the thread...................... and can anyone let us know if NHRA is going to audiocast this event. The site is still displaying the information for the Gatornationals. I hope to hear all the e.t.s while I'm working.
Thanks Ken and all have a safe and successful race weekend.
Walt

Didn't look like a hijack to me (no more than tow hubs anyway), for those that haven't been to zMAX it is one amazing facility...everybody on asphalt and a great layout. Just hard to believe they only have two events at the track all year! The NASCAR track has something going all the time, it's a great track and you can't appreciate the elevation changes and corners without being there. Missed going to their Spring Auto Fest last weekend, big turnout of about every car club and vendor in the East.

Thanks Ken for the pics and reports. Good luck with the firebird, sure it knows how to find the winner's circle.
