Eckert 24 Late Model Interior View Steering Wheel

STARS- and UDTRA-  sanctioned races allow driver-adjustable brakes. The crank on the bottom left allows Eckert to bias his brakes front to rear as the track changes during the course of a race. There also is an electric line lock that allows the driver to completely shut off his right-front brake, allowing him to pitch the car into the turns even harder. If you see Rick at a race, don’t pick on him about his Care Bear (right, slightly behind the steering wheel).
