1/8 scale salt flat roadster.

the rear tires actually are the same dimensional size as goodyear largest land speed tire. 28x10.00x15. since no land speed tires exist in 1/8 scale. i may try to crown the tread area a little bit but, that's about all i'm going to do. spending $50.00 for the rubber and 8 hrs. grinding neoprene to make spot on tires, isn't in the cards for this build.

as far as the fronts go, there are quite a few salt flat cars running dragster front tires on them.

thanks guys.

i gotta agree with you joe. i'm just not sure what i'm going to do with it yet. i'm thinking about a full length belly pan and i guess it will depend on where it looks good at. maybe i'll do some kind of rolled back pan or something?
