Skinny bodies from Smith Scale Speedway

Here are a few of the Skinny bodies I put together. I'm definately not a professional painter or bodyman but they work for me.

Your cars look nice! What chassis did you use? The Sprints Plus? Motors? I've had my eye on these bodies for a few months, I'll have to place an order.

I'm running the Sprints Plus chassis and they all have Parma motors I had laying around. They go pretty good. Just hard to find room for lead weights on such small chassis.

Way we add weight is to get some about 1in heavy brass strips and solder to the bottom of the chassis

I run one of these with a Falcon 4, and ProTrack tires on our flat oval. The car runs pretty good with no weight added.
