Most of the hill climb and other events that i have looked into and was knocked back from entering at bathurst 4 weeks ago, was because of this tailshaft loop. I havent actually seen one so i was wondering if any of you guys have a pic of your ones and where they go BACK / FRONT or both ?
Thanks Kevin

yeah cause if it drops at the front it will prob dig in and cause all the damage but if it drops from the back it will just drag along

No more than 150 mm from front driveshaft, the loop has to be 40mm wide not sure how thick it should be..I made one as I had fitted slicks at drags. With slicks you must have drive shaft loop..You can buy them for around $70.00
As in project section...
