Can anyone really runs 10's thru a 4 square inch hole? Guessing whatever they allow is ok as long as it gets "factored" into the equation...
Why run an air cleaner ? Im serious ? If your air cleaner and snorkel are creating a retriction, the rules say Air Cleaner Optional .... Why run one at all ? Temperature ? I mean ? They are race cars ,,,,, Am I missing something here ?

And I ask that in all honesty......what am I missing ?
