I used the 1' rubber ones for back there and you push em in and tighten them up with a bolt...I am replacing the rest with actual freeze plugs... those rubber plugs are pretty heavy duty..... I'll try em out for a while and see how they hold up...

You're positively frightening. I certainly hope you race only single passes. Because when it pops out and all that fluid gets on the tires, the good result is you only hurt your car, not yourself or others. :faint:
