Newest Trend in 911 Modifications. The DUALLY!

Guess they don't drive it because that set up would probably blow the tires as they would rub together. At least they would under load. There is a reason to keep the tire walls from rubbing. However, long live creativity!

if I convert my racecar maybe I won't have to take points for widening the rear wheels?

Very good point.

Q: Are tires or wheels wider than stock?
A: Nope. [snicker]

Cory, the GCR's only state wheel width, there is nothing about how many rear wheels you can use. I think you should dual-up a set of 9"s. That puppy would really stick with 18"s of rubber on the ground. That would catch Sheriff Parker at a loss for words.

This is the kind of thinking that racing needs! Jim Hall and Norbert Singer must've thought this way. Was it the Chaparral 2D, where they needed a minimum luggage space (like the spare tire - weird rule) so Jim Hall grafted in a bunch of small storage containers in most or all of the body work, and it added up to the minimum!

I remember the prototype for the 917/10 ran duallies in the rear, since at the time there weren't tires wide enough to handle the power!


Take care

I thought that everyone was upgrading to the Super Single??

[DohertyCM]

Well, its an interesting Idea....

But..

They need a spacer between the wheels to get a wider stance....

I think its a VW Kit Car...

Pretty sure I remember that car from a Miami Vice episode in '85 or so!
