One for show, One for go. Speedway brings to market a heavier duty application of their popular gasser axle selection. When your gasser tribute car has gotten a bit out of hand on your quarter-mile slips, you may want the added assurance that a stronger 3/8” thick wall axle provides. These axles are ideal for serious drag cars and heavier vehicle applications like 1955+ trucks and 1955-63 Chevy’s. A 28% improvement in strength will give you the added insurance that when the light turns green you can hang your hoops without worry.
