The Bonneville run is straight with minimal steering once lined up.

How about fixing the covers during the run ?
Some tie wraps could do the job.
And a cutter to remove them again after the run.
I have considered this from before I ever got started.I have Dzus weld plates and fasteners which I might be able to rivet in place.Or I could just screw the silly things for the runs.I can't have anything in the truck when I run that could become a missile or impalement device if things went bad.I may be able to bolt an ammo box to the floor,with a caribiner to secure the latch.That might pass tech inspection and allow for some tools.A coin would work with the Dzus fasteners and I could zip that into a firesuit pocket.Details!
