Our own Slot Therapist took a time lapse video of using household ammonia to strip the chrome off an AutoWorld VW Bug body. (To say this is the easy way, is an understatement) So, starting with this: http://www.homeracingworld.us/SHADOW/Coppermine/albums/userpics/10013/Chrome_bug_body.jpg It was sub...

Jesla - I haven't seen any negative effects to date. I have a number of bodies that I have used this method on and have them as part of the regular runners I use and haven't noted any ill effects like brittleness, etc. :) Here is a link to one of the ones I stripped fully and then repainted: Mercury...

APalmer invited a group of us to his home yesterday for fun on his twin tracks - the Palmer Beach Raceway road course and The Sand Pit oval! Last night's racing featured the first go around using the Race Coordinator Software's "Fuel Race" feature which required racers to monitor their fue...

The next class the hit the track were the Fairground cars! These are based on stock Aurora Tjet chassis with double flange wheels (wide tires in the rear allowed - but not required). Similar to the Friday night cars - this class is a WHOLE lot of fun! The drivers and their cars were: Our host APalme...

:) After two rounds at "The Sand Pit" it was off to the "Palmer Beach Raceway" road course for some stock Tjet action! http://www.homeracingworld.us/SHADOW/Coppermine/albums/userpics/10013/20171118_134630.jpg The drivers and their cars were: Our host APalmer and his green and gol...

:flags-waveusa: After the fun of slip sliding around with the stock Tjets - it was on to the MagnaTraction / X-Traction class (with no button magnets)! The drivers and their cars were: Our host APalmer with the only drop top in the field - running his rag top white Challenger: http://www.homeracingw...

:flags-waveusa: The final class for the evening was Super Stock Tjets (FRAY type) based on Aurora / DASH chassis. The drivers and their cars were: Our host APalmer and his Pontiac GTO http://www.homeracingworld.us/SHADOW/Coppermine/albums/userpics/10013/20180203_191910.jpg Breadman and his green Cam...

Great report and equally great tracks. Love "The Sand Pit" but nice design on "The Beach". Both tracks are a LOT of fun and running with the "Fuel / Pit Stop" option was a riot! Definitely looking forward to the next outing at the Beach and the Sand Pit! :D :banana-dan...

That is a good looking color on that body!
The Boyz deserve a tall cold one for the work on that!
Bravo!

That is an IMPRESSIVE layout! Great vids! Thanks for sharing!
:text-bravo:

Appreciate the update - will be ordering one either way - but wanted to wait to place the order in case there is something special I need to note, etc.
(and yes - I am willing to be the guinea pig on a 1/24 version) ;)
Thanks guys!

That is looking GREAT!
:text-bravo:

That is looking very cool sir!
Looking forward to added updates!

Oh man Bob! You are killing me! Another VERY cool looking build that will most likely be a hoot to race!
Bravo sir!

Slot Therapist ordered up a batch of 3d printed bodies from a seller msch2318 on ebay to put together a new series to run on the various ovals in our group. Here are a couple shots of the body as received: http://www.homeracingworld.us/SHADOW/Coppermine/albums/userpics/10013/20180122_190749.jpg http...
