fork barspin question

i know its lame, but i wanna do barspins. im about to order parts to build up a nice front 650 wheel but i realized maybe i could get a fork with a slightly different design (more/less rake etc...) that would allow me to barspin. i have a pake 53 cm with a fuji track fork and a 700c front wheel. the tire hits the downtube but could be cleared if there was about 1 cm less rubber on the tire. im using my skidded to death old tire on the front and still not enough room for barspins. if anyone knows any fork that i could use to allow my bike to barspin itd be greatly appreciated- then i could do sweet tricks and still ride my bike on a track in races without having to change wheels. hell, maybe id win some races and then go do some victory barspins in the parking lot.
