We saw how VITAL protecting the front end of these cars is yesterday. Saw one of these ran yesterday under ND's Association rules (chain & go). Had the stock front bumper on it-came in the arena made about 2 hits with the back end and takes 3 shots repeatedly to the front end. Completely destroyed the front end-fenders were ripped off motor was about sideways....it wasnt good. Ill try and get a pic sometime here...

Fan? or NO Fan? There is not much clearance between the radiator and the fan..

Find a smaller radiator and keep your fan.

You can't take the spacer out on the visc. fan. Most of the time they need at least some sort of spacer so the fan clears everything.
