    with no caps its looks mean and it also looks like either car could be raced...its something that can be changed simple to put em on or take em off ..depends on our mood id say
     
  2. Need caps. How about some 62 vette caps............
     
  3. chrome lugs and trim rings IMO
     
  4. I'd go WITH caps, and put a matching set on the trailer, too!!!

    I would drive with one sock on, with the hub caps, but only when I am out to pick up chicks!! And I would probably leave the caps on when I am going racing, less work!

    Caps on - "I'm towing the race car to the track". Caps off - "I'm driving the racecar to the track". vic

    No caps, it says "You dont get a lower et for having them on the car"
    No caps, it says "The wheels are attached to the car, and thats good enough for me"
    No caps, it says"I spent more time making the engine scream, I never gave them a second thought"

    Truly No caps, you have very little trim, it looks better without!
     
  20. Need the caps, with the dark color of the car there is no definition without them.

    Thanks to everyone who voted.

    "With caps" won with 75%.

    I really like the idea of the spider caps. I was checking them out at Pistons and Paint. I think Santa is gonna bring me a set.

    Bart,
    I really enjoyed looking at your Midget Racer this last weekend. My wife and I left the show for about an hour to attend Mass at one of the local Catholic churches and when we returned the Chupacabras told me you drove the racer around the lot. I wished I could have seen it run.

    Thanks for bringing it to the show.

    Jose
