We're in the process of putting a 10.5W TR & have a few questions for you guys. Here's some specs first of all: it's an '87 TR that utilizes a firewall-back chromemoly tube frame & cage, a 4-link/a wishbone/& an anti-roll bar, 9" disc brake rear, 28"X10.5"s or 31"X10.5W's, glass bumpers w/aluminum struts, a pin-on hood, a pin-on trunk lid, 1 JAZ racing seat, lexan windshield & rear glass, TRZ tubular control arms set up for coils & stock shocks, Aerospace brakes at all 4 corners, no inner fenderwells/ac/or heater, steel doors w/ the horizontal braces removed & lexan windows, stock dash, a powerglide, and basically a stock motor (for now since everything else is going to suck us dry!). Anybody have an idea as to what it might weigh? It will have the usual battery & fuel cell in the trunk set-up as well Centerline Warriors & MT rubber. It's going to be a copy of Rick's car (GNX-XRAY, white w/WO2 package & grey interior, for those who never saw it) except for the fender flares & the Ed Quay wing on the deck lid. What gear do you think would work well with the 28's & with the 31's?. How much stall do you guys feel is enough for this type of car? Thanks for the input.
