Who Runs a Diaper?

[Jeff Jewell]

I have a DRE diaper on my Corvette and I have been happy with it. In a couple of spots, the headers are less than 1/2" away from the block and the diaper lays on the headers. The high heat material used on the diaper in those areas works perfectly.

I have one from DRE . I sent my custom pan to him. and it fits better than my socks do. also on some cars I have made belly pans as an option. I know i'll get some flack for this but it's just a good idea to have one, it could save your car.

When we had this discussion at the track yesterday a guy with a Stocker said "Great another item we have to buy" Mean while a stocker was what blew up at Farmington last week and dumped oil from the 330 to the finish line.

watch a competitor destroy his car early this year, lucky to be alive. First thing I noticed when what was left of the car was back in his pit, was the hole in the side of the pan that I wouldn't have see IF there was a diaper on that car.

Having experienced first hand the benefit to having a diaper after my engine kicked a rod in the lights last year, dumping 7 quarts and the rod in the diaper, I'm a believer and will never race without one. No cleanup was required, minimal down time for my competitors and my car as well myself were unscathed.

Thanks Dennis aka DIAPERMAN

How did the car get a hole in the oil pan? If a diaper was on the car not sure how that will happen if the came from the outside.

Seems like whenever this topic comes up, the thread always turns into an advertising campaign.

If you want to put a diaper on your ride, by all means do it.

We have already been through this battle once. We don't need any more enhancements to the S/SS rulebook. Thanks anyway for all your "concern".
