They use plastic downspout velcro'd to the floor. Trying to find out how exactly they velcro it.

Found out how they attach the velcro.
They use 3 to 4 patches of velcro 4 inches a piece along an 8 foot piece of downspout. Holds better than we might think apparently.
Only question is how well it would hold onto our old carpet.

This is just a reminder to all those who are wanting to run on the ice.. the next race is on the 22nd of this month so this week coming.. i will be there and oh yes my truck will be running! I wont be let down 2 times in a row! So if anyone who wants to be running please get ahold of me either on here or at Wonderland and let me know so i know how many tickets to be getting in. This will be round 2 of the 8 man free for all we are going to have a couple of other trucks on hand just in case but please get your stuff running prior to the race so we can have a massive scene for all to see.

I'm braking in 2 engines, a small block and big block wahat are the temperatures I should run them at ?>
I idle 1 tank through the P 7 and it was verrrrryyyyyy tight It took me a good 2 hours to get it started. ( I did it inside my carpentry shop because is heated and yes by the time I was done I was cryingfrom all the fumes, next time I'm doing it with my swimming gargles on) how many tanks should I run and can I run cheaper 20% to start?

Dennis!! Yes it has been a long time there buddy, right now the indoor racing wont be for a bit yet but we got ourselfs into ice racing. Mainly what it is, is that we run on the ice at the Canada Games Arena during the GP Storm hockey games. We came up with a couple of different races that we pull off and were trying to put together round 2 of a 8 truck figure 8 race where on the start of the first period intermission we get on the ice and complete a full figure 8 and the first person to the center puck drop and stops wins! BUT tagging other trucks is not only optional its in the rules.. so there has been and will be damage. Its a lot of fun.

Yes you can run the 20% to break tham in and in most manuals it will say to use 20% to break them in which is good, and for the P7R it takes at least half gallon to break them in and the OS almost the same then they will begin to pour on power as long as you have them tuned right.
