HRW Midget Proxy II

[mrollingthunder]

I think my earlier message must have gotten lost in some digital neverneverland. I have to bow out, I realized too late I didn't have a 33 tooth gear installed and there wasn't one to be found in the parts bin or on a donor! I found an old Cox inline gear but it is too big to fit the chassis! Next time!

:lol: Just remember...Brass + piano wire + high center of gravity + narrow track + tiny (and old) motor = a heavy, slow and hysterically funny car on the racetrack! I just build these for fun, not performance! One of the reasons I look forward to this proxy.

Exactly. Need another track for a series race? Not an oval, but seriously twisty road course. I could host.

sending my car now

Mine is on the way as well, cash in the bag with the car. Should be there tomorrow, guaranteed no later than the 1st. Now lets have some fun! Still has the 30 tooth gear, so hopefully the mechanics can change it out!

Hello HRW gang..

I am really sorry and disappointed that I can't participate in this Midget Proxy.. My second big C and work has really putting a big halt on stuff.. I got a ton of midget bodies and parts just can't seem to feel well enough to enjoy the build..it sucks..

Thanks again

Any sign of the #13? It was guaranteed by this afternoon.

:lol: I had the same issue, couldn't find a 33 tooth gear anywhere! I believe that is a 1/32 scale gear though, as the 1/24 gears I have are a much bigger diameter. As far as rewiring, either that or just reversing the side the gear is on will be fine, I leave it in your capable hands! I doubt the gearing will be an issue. The thing is a tank and the motor a survivor of at least a proxy seasons, so it won't be setting any records with a tall gear.
