wedge fuel cells

[let-r-eat]

You have to be serious to buy these $2500 fuel cells but 1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1 advantages add up. Trying to control weight on the chassis is going to have everything to do with where it's placed. Changing that placement will change the reaction of the car. Anything we can do to maintain that placement is going to help. Wedge cells and ultralight wedge cells try to accomplish that by controlling the fuel in a manner that maintains that equilibrium.

your not all serious?

Let's see aluminum engine block $5000.00 vs $2500.00 for steel saves 100 lbs. or so or $25.00 a pound. I fully realize polar weight management and other factors play in this also. Applying this dollars per pound to un sprung weight you could say you may get twice the benefit for each pound you cut. My thinking is do the less expensive weight reductions dollars per pound first then do the higher price less gain things later. JMHO. When I win the Power Ball today I will have the most Badddazz car in history and will still get lapped by better drivers but I will be lapped in one sweet piece. It' called prioritizing and it's you're not your.

and it's you're not your.

You know you are a troll when you resort to pointing out grammar on a racing forum. Get a life.

rci makes a 22 and 26 gallon wedge cell, they aren't expensive by any means. 300 360.

they are plastic type cells but that's what most seem to run anyways

D@mn! Lots of really good information here! Glad I brought this thread back to the top! I was considering buying a 17 gallon wedge cell from fuel safe for my modified. I was pondering if it was worth the extra money being that I normally run the $250 dollar rci rectangle cells... I had a few theorys on what they did and how they did it but they were just speculation. I never would have thought it would do all the things we've discussed.... Thanks everyone for the info. I believe I'll be bitting the bullet and purchasing one.
