Never been a big fan of the cab forward look either. But, i talked to a driver who was testing them, and he said he was 0.5 sec a lap faster with them indoors. guess that's why people run them. Been waiting patiently ever since for avid to get them on the site. Looks like i am going cab forward.

It may be ugly to some, but the on power steering is really improved.

FTW may be different but they work. I have seen them on our local track for the last month and everyone is switching to them here.

Its all about the lap times.

Keep it up FTW!!!!!! Glad to see something different.

They are much nicer looking in 3 dimensions than they are on a computer screen.

They work. Period.

I hope the guys i race with have that attitude.The last 3 races, the diff between TQ and 2nd has been about 2 seconds, and the diff between 1st and 2nd in the main abiout the same. Been on both the good side and bad side of those results. 0.5 sec a lap in a 14 lap is 7 seconds, so i will take that edge if i can. Hell, i can't wait for one for 4wd, it's even closer!
