    Default rear deck/roof braces

    Ive seen in pictures and cant tell the material these are or where to find them. Ive seen cars using them off the right of the cage to the roof and on the rear deck support going from post to outer edge of deck. Any help?

    I copied BWRC and made mine out of 1/2" round tubing. Flattened the ends in a press. Very rigid and economical.

    I have used the small aluminum tubing method or use the adjustable aluminum hex spoiler braces that are made for asphalt bodies.

    I use shifter rod with heims.
    somehow about feature time the rear of the roof gets higher and the RF gets lower. I cannot figure out how tho.....
    I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

    Default Magic

    [QUOTE=stock car driver;1972319]Must have magic expanding aluminum to use for ur sail panels. And never make the tech area![/QUOTE

    All sail panels front and rear are bowed. When ran threw tech at beginning of night, It all passes. After feature,all is checked is weight, and sometimes tire compounds.
    I race UMP.

    Unless you race at PRP, then you have to pass tech before the race, during the race, after the race, on the trailer on your way home, while getting diesel for the truck. They even want to come to your garage and pull a surprise tech session.

    They are about the only one in the area that tech's like that, I think they are a little extreme with the power.
    Too bad it is 4+hours away from me...lol
    I am not real fond of the track anyway.

    I will look to see if I can find a good photo that shows it.
    P.M me an e-mail address or a number to send them too if you don't mind
