Finally taking the digger out on Sunday

<< < (5/5)

dreracecar:
It all comes down to perspective , since the trend was to narrow the front axle (for no other purpose, the because the "Big Show" cars did it) instead of having it wider to keep an eye on the tire. Its the same visability then as it is now except the front end width

rooman:
It is fairly simple--when you stage the wall is a certain distance from one side of the car and the centerline is a certain distance from the other side--keep those distances the same and you will go in a straight line. You don't need to be looking sideways to do that, just paying attention to the relative distances from any part of the car that is in your field of vision.

Yeah after the fourth pass. I was feeling way comfortable and the vision didn't bother me at all. Thanks y'all
