Sptfire skid into a Cyclone?
Sptfire skid into a Cyclone?
Has anyone put a Spitfire skid into a 78 Cyclone for oval racing? Is it even possible (with good results)?
Re: Sptfire skid into a Cyclone?
Why would you want to putt a spit skid in a cyclone? If you are looking to do some kind of conversion I would recommend using an 80-84 Liqifire skid and rubber track.

Good point. Does the Liquifire have 2.52 drivers? Is it lighter than a spitfire skid?
Re: Sptfire skid into a Cyclone?
Don't know about weight but the drivers are 3.29.

Re: Sptfire skid into a Cyclone?
I would think you would want to keep the center of gravity low to the ground for oval racing. By putting any other suspension in your Cyclone it will raise the rear end.ski wrote:Has anyone put a Spitfire skid into a 78 Cyclone for oval racing? Is it even possible (with good results)?
