What are you guys using? I overheard a guy at the track talking about RV/motorhome hose. Any details on this?

What are you using and where to get it?

I used HD roof vent material in the lower turn signal to funnel the air to the alum vent hose (also HD) cheap and easy to get. then I connected the alum hose to a 3" alum pipe bolted to the inner fender. I then ran good duct from Day motorsports to the wheel. I had to extend my wheel stops to keep my tires off the ducting (tore off the passenger side right away), this reduced the turn radius a little but does not affect racing, just in the pits. By using the short expensive hose one section will last a long time. I also made alunimum "shields" for the top nuts of my lower control arms so the hose will glide over those when turning, going up and down.
