Well as promised once I had a chance to test it, I would tell you how it ran.
I don't know if this is a proper method, but after running this car around yesterday, I would certainly build another, just like it!
The car looks good going down the track. I think those SCC provided C.B. Design 17 x 11 rear wheels just set it off the way it should look. Nice healthy 'meats' in the back and 17 x 8 in front just make the stance correct.
With the H&R Hawk 18,000 rpm motor mounted in the chassis, I do believe the power delivery is right on. You can get back on the throttle in mid corner and not upset the balance of the chassis. The car just steps out a bit, directly proportional to the amount of throttle is applied. I'm happy with that!
ModlerBob grabbed one of his Scaley T/A Mustangs from his shelves and the race was on. I was able to trailer the Scaley car without much effort.
Overall the car is a win-win.
Now all I need to do is build an interior shelf, decide on which livery I want to paint it and finish it up.
I think if you build one just like it, you should be very happy with the results.
