OLD Modified Corvettes

randy wilson · 12-14-2013, 10:46 AM

Some very good ideas Dwight. The only one I have a real issue with, is the 10.5 tire. And that reason being, mine, and other SS type cars will look awfully goofy with those on because of the current width of rearends. Most, if not all, would have to change rearend housings. I was looking at a more realistic 12.5. And, maybe I misunderstood your post, but I think the older cars are at a disadvantage because of the new cars with the laid back wind shields, and less frontal area. I don't think it matters much in the 1\8th mile, but in the quarter it does matter.
