View Full Version : incar wheel rack
40 minutes of head scratching and messing around i quickly constructed this little beauty as i am going to curburough on tues and still hadnt sorted out how to take my track wheels with me.
I will tidy it up when i can be arsed but its function is cock on and with a few small ratchet straps holds the wheels absolutley perfect

Looks good. Just make sure there properly strapped down you down want to have a crash and have 4 wheels flying towards your head.

Did ground force come round and miss place the decking in the boot of your primered then laquered lawn mower? :lol: :lol: :lol:

i chose the hard compound nath (k9a) as they are the circuit tyres listed with kuhmo. The mediums are to soft and are best used for their purpose of rally events which wouldnt require quite as much constant abuse and the softs would just be a joke with me lmao.
I'll ignore the last 2 comments as i know within that time they couldnt build anything half as good :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

ive got mediums. but i did buy them in winter for donington. they do get abit soft when they get really warm and sticky. they've lasted 4 months on the road and 2 trackdays. I obviously don't drive hard enough. :lol:
See you tuesday dan.

:D similar to what i did. Make sure you got something soft under the frame else that nice paint job will be chaffed away
To bed your new track tyres in go for a drive round the track a couple of times at moderate speeds and weave side to side as the pros' do.
Good luck on Tues - wished I was going :(
