If you need air shields check out mirror image on the apr board. He can get you an entire set for $15
Ok, i have never used these and dont know much about them. I've gathered you fasten them to the body and they ride inside the wheels? If this is right, how does this work with the fdw?
It should still ride inside the FDW. You just need to double check it is not rubbing. The shields I sell are made by HurriCrane and are the exact ones him and JBD run. The best ones out there. http://www.derbydad4hire.com/HurriCrane-Air-Shields-Crane.htm
I have no experience with them but i thought i read somewhere if you are gonna run box stock you are gonna need to use these.
I might be wrong but I think they need modified for box stock. Pretty sure you are not permitted to have anything between the wheel and the body
And yes john i understood what you meant after i had already replied. I was thinking about it and realized that was what u meant by making sure its not rubbing. Thanks guys
Yes, I'm sure you need to go full aero to compete but that class requires that there isn't anything between the wheel and the body so you will have to modify your shields
If you want my opinion, don't run Box Stock. It is more restrictive than scout racing and it is all about finding the lightest wheels. There are older version of the new style wheel that are much lighter and you can no longer get them. Some people do have access to them though. Who wants to buy 100 sets of wheels just to get 3 good ones? Stick with BASX.
As far as if you can, I don't know. I have no ties with NPWDRL any longer. If you can't have anything between the wheel and body then you want the GEE Air Sliders.
You can run the Hurricrane air shields... but you have to cut a large hole in the middle so the wheel hub doesn't ride on the plastic shield.
