I think the section width is 21" & diameter is 32.8". If they are still there, you & Chuck are more than welcome to have them. I wouldn't buy new slicks until you are ready to race.

Good suggestion Wink

TopSportsman916 January 9th 2010, 7:39 pm

I talked to Rick & he doesn't have the slicks anymore. Now he still has my Goodyear front runners. They are 26" x 4.5".Don't know what size tire you plan on running but youre welcome to these . Smile

Chris,

We could definitely use the front runners. Are you guys going to the tech seminar?

Thanks for the help Cool

Damon, sorry, we're not gonna make the seminar. Chris's mom is in the ICU unit here in Norfolk.....send me an address to ship them to and I'll send them out....

IDT-572 January 12th 2010, 6:19 pm

Heck Josh,

I'm 6'2" 230 lb and you barely got in my car and I have plenty of room. Chuck would probably have the same problem getting in yours.

That's why he's Hobb's body guard................ Laughing

Wow did I get completely in your car? I was thinking I couldn't get one foot in all the way! I still think I heard your car sggh when finally got out. You also need a wider seat for your scrawny self.

jones January 12th 2010, 6:31 pm

Is Chucks seat a new unit or still his old one? It's not custom is it? I actually fit in that seat.

That or a cherry picker to pick the car up and shake you out!

Chuck. Have you tried sitting in there without the seat to see if you actually sit lower due to your knees not being pushed up into your chest? It seems like one of those Kirkey layback seats that the circle track guiys use might be a better choice.

That is an idea to try just to see what happens. If sitting directly on the floor does help gain room then some kind of a dragster/roadster seat might be a better way to go. Or you might be able to modify the Kirkey to sit flatter, kinda like the old ancient RCI aluminum seats used to sit.

Chuck is so tall , I don't think there's any way he could stretch his legs out unless he was sitting on top of the rearend housing.Unless you've ever seen him in person ,you have no idea how big he really is affraid
