Would you need engine tin on a track car? Or is that something that is only really needed on a street vehicle?

Andy,
I've seen that done and have a picture of one. It's a "tray" that fits tight around the base of the air cleaners and keeps the hot air out of the intakes. Does it work? Don't know for sure but I would think the advantage would be minimal. Paul |
