Hi John,
First; I would suggest you get, or download a copy of the Legends Car Rulebook. You will be VERY limited by the rules. Not Anything like the mods! Part of the reason our mods were so expensive was because the rules left room for LOTS of "Creative Thinking".
(Joe used expensive part "X", or "did this"; and we all had to try to keep up with racer Joe.) The Legends rules limit a lot of what you can and can't use, or do. All the major components are sold by 600 Racing, or their dealers. I'm NOT saying you can't "Think Creatively"; Just limited.
I posted this question over on DCR; and it started quite a heated debate.
(Am I Bad!) I had seen this same question posted before, and was just asking for a link to the old thread.
Tom,
I think the spacer idea is interesting! Try it out in practice; If it doesn't work, it wouldn't take much time to change it back.
Al,
I knew you would be the guy that would post the rule.
I REALLY need to go through that rule book!
As Always,
JMHO
Steve
