You might want to rethink that statement and specify what type of race cars you are talking about. I need them on my NASA SU Race Car all the time.


Nice car and hood though

Nice car and hood though

Hopefully this helps you get the joke. On a drag race application such as this car, which is obviously the goal given the tire/rim combination, windshield wipers would not be needed as the car will most likely never be driven in the rain. Also, if this car was to be caught in a rainstorm, I'm sure the wipers would be the last of his concerns.

Hopefully this clears things up for you.
