'89 Camaro Circle Track Cage

What do I mount the struts to after I remove the front fenderwells and strip the fenders?
This is on a '89 Camaro, and its to be run on a 1/8th mile dirt track...without weight jacks. Does anyone have pictures of this?

Re: '89 Camaro Circle Track Cage

These are not second gens where you can easily remove inner fenders. Some people have created upper strut mounts that attach to roll cage tubes along the top of the inner fenders and to the frame rails.

Unless you have real good fabrication skills, it will be easier to just keep the inner fenders.

Third gens are not good candidates for dirt track racing.
