Looking at some Hoosier DOT drag radials, Wanted to know if you have to install a driveshaft loop to run them at the track? The ones Im looking at could damn near pass for slicks

I can't say for all tracks, but most of them require it, plus it's just a smart idea incase you blow the front u-joint you don't catapult yourself.
It's not gonna hurt and they're fairly cheap so why not?
If your running at a track that follows any kind of rules then YES. With Drag slicks you need a hoop within 6'' of the front ujoint.
I thought that was only a requirement for slicks?...I have enver been asked about a loop...hmmmm
I think if you're putting any decent amount of power down and racing you should have one, slicks or not.
It's $50 and two hours work at the most. Do it.
where can i get one?Quote:
