Boy, I suck on the ice....bad...


1/4 head sheet metal screws only. No actual studs. Unfortunately. Tire pressure still makes a difference. The gray #1 mod-x had a left rear that started the race with 25 psi in it. By lap 5 or so, it was flat, made it bad loose..that was the world famous Fong driving it by the way.

How long of a sheet metal screw do you use! Can you try different style of screws? Are you spitting screws? if so I do have a cure for that.  Do you adjust the screws?

I wish I had another set of tires. I would stud them up. That looks like fun.
