belly pan question

Is anyone running without the belly pan? If so is there any benefit besides removing it to change the oil?

I heard it helps with cooling in the summertime and it might protect from rocks hitting your oil pan. Lots of people run with them off and have no problems.

I have had mine off for over a year, no problems.

It helps flatten out road kills more and keeps most of the chunks out of the engine bay.

I havent ran with it in about 2 years.....no issues...I am thinking of putting it on for winter thou
