Minimum side clearance on slicks?

It’s all good while everything goes to plan! I think your clearance will be fine as long as everything hooks up well but if it all gets out of shape and those big *** tyres start to wobble then you risk tearing up you nice clean panels and shiny paint.

I’d be taking the advice and adding extra clearance while you can (do it once, do it right).

My buddy from Hitman racing came over today to seem my mini tubs.
He took one look and said "Nope, that ain't gonna work"

He thinks on launch when the car twists its gonna ketch the sidewall on the inner fender and outer fender lip, destroying the tire and my quarter.

These guys build serious race cars and know what they're talking about.
He says cut the frame and make more room now before I shorten the axle, or hurt my car, my self or some poor bystander.

He want me to cut 1 1/4 inch out of the frame giving me 2 1/8" on each side
At this point I may as well just start over and back half the dam car... he's a good friend and some one I fully trust when it comes to what works, what's safe, what's not and what just may get you killed...

The only good news he had was that he will lend me his axle jig so I dont have to pay to get mine done...



I got about one inch on each side of the tire. What do you think, not enough?
