How much space is available on the front before you hit the shock body/something? Without using an offset calculator, that is what about a +40-+45?

Oh damn those are wide. I guess I need to do more front fender work to clear those.

There is plenty of space on the inside the issue becomes when you go full lock. They work out to 44 offset fort and 64 rear

I would like to think you'll never be full lock on a course! Setting up early/properly I never seem to use more steering angle than the picture below. Disclaimer- The picture was used during a protest taken from a Gopro HD, silly course workers couldn't sit the cone back in the box. Funny thing is my tire is right on the line of where it should be.

Holly BSP, these wheel/tire pictures are making me want a BSP car over buying a CR for STR. I'm so back and forth, clearly I need to hold off for longer. Haha Are you worried about the tire catching the edge of the front fender or will it tuck in enough under compression? It doesn't look like it will tuck enough from the pictures. Hows the clearence in the back?

I can tell you right now, that will rub as it sits in the photo...not too much more of a pull is needed though.

Can someone explain this rule to me?

"The engine fan and fan shroud (unless it serves another purpose,
e.g., as an alternator/generator mount) may be removed, modified
or replaced."

Does this mean that the black shound thing between the bumper and radiator can be modified/removed? Specifically I'm wondering if it can be modified/removed to create a snorkel for ducting cold air to the intake.

im not sure your reading it the same way i do. It states, "the engine fan" and engine fan shroud" may be removed... now is the panel you are talking about the fan shroud... if it is then yes. since it isnt and i believe your talking about the radiator shroud, you cant
correct if wrong but this is what i think
