Image or aero? How much do they really do? I remember when I was a teenager with my first car mowing yards for two weeks to save up $7.98 to get a set from Honest Charley. I just hadda have that old

I used to have 6 10-32 screws holding each disc on, and they were a real pain in the buttox. Pulling a disc for tech, or just checking tire pressure took way too long. Moon will loan you a template

OK all another piece of my old time wisdom. Your car will be faster with them. Old timers told me 1 to 2 mph per 100 mph and that's good enough for me. Under a fender may not mean a thing a wind tunn

After having four or five sets of steel wheels drilled an tapped for 10-32, I'd use Dzus fasteners. Stop by the pits and help me check tire pressure and you'll see what I mean. And I would indeed us

NASCAR boys have tried this in the wind tunnel. Not legal for them but they will experiment with anything. The feedback I got was that on a fendered car (NASCAR) it ain't worth a thing. On a Lakester

Guess the aero improvement (if there is any) ain't significant compared to the lack of brake cooling. Cooling may be something else to consider when stopping from 200+ MPH on the Salt. JB -- Original
