A guy that races a Colt at one of the near by drag strips runs a 9" floater. I asked why several years ago and he told me if he broke an axle he didn't want to lose a tire and tear the car up.


you wont loose a tire with a regular 9" they are bolted to the flange




Tell that to my buddy who broke an axle at the bearing on his Omni/Charger and destroyed the rear quarter.




Exactly, I've personally seen multiple 9"s break axles outside the bearing. And another thing, why is it at every drag meeting, when you walk around the pits sooner or later you will see it, laying on the grass a 9" pinion still attatched to the drive shaft?????


in all my years of racing I have never seen one break on the outside.
