    Hollow axles

    Okay boys and girls, sometimes my mind goes to weird places when it comes to rules. Take hollow axles, for example. They are illegal in many forms of racing, but if you fill them in they are no longer hollow, correct? What if you fill them with melted plastic? Then you have a steel axle with a plastic center so it is no longer hollow?

    This should be fun
    What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, but anything you catch comes home with you!

    This gives a whole new meaning to the expression "stuffed axle"

    Think I heard about helium filled and capped axles once.....could not tell them from solid. Magnetic and amazingly light.

    Hollow 3/32 Axles are not worth the risk as all to often in even a minor "wreck" they snap .
