Do you run at the track without wheel caps?
I drove the front-right wheel cap off my ARC-8's at Thunderhill on Wednesday.
I see most cars with their wheel caps on at the track. Should I glue them in? Or run without them? The choice would be really easy if the center hub didn't rust so quickly. |

...on some cars its worse than others. I have seen some people install a ring on the INSIDE of the center cap and use hex allen set screws to keep the cap from coming off. But that is a lot of work for something that doesn't cost all that much to replace IF it ever comes off. or like you said just remove them prior to running the DE.

I lost my front driverside one at Las Vegas Speedway.
 I wonder if you can order Breyton caps seperately?

It's best to remove the center wheel caps and the air stem caps. Elimanates potential track fodder. Also removal of the air stem caps means you can check your tire pressures quicker as well.
