With the G's you're pullin', racing down the street it probably won't be the first center cap to go flying off the car. Heck, when I get going the Mustang horse on my grill starts to glow red and disintegrate from the excessive speed! I keep a box of 'em in my garage.

I have that same issue it used to be compounded going past 80 mph before I disconnected my flux capacitor.

Eastwood actually has a heat-resistant coating now very similar to what is used on the space shuttle, you just dip the front end of your car and it's protected up to 4000 deg F, or 85 MPH, whichever comes first.

For those of you who don't think 85 MPH is fast, I'm talking 85 NAUTICAL MPH!!

CAUTION: 88 mph and a flux capacitor will get you back to the future!

THat's why I have a Greddy BOV on my flux. cap. It's out of a turbo'd Honda, and it's supposed to be good up to 93 MPH.
