RAA Carrera Proxy ???

Postby Austin » Sun May 13, 2018 10:21 am

Carrera Sports car inline cars only.

There will be a Max of 20 cars for this proxy

1 Street and racing sports or prototypes cars produced after 1980.

2 No Nascars.

3 Gear ratio to be 3 to 1 (8/24, 9/27, 10/30) so on.

4 Carrera E200 or H&R 18k motor.

6 Rear Urethane tires that fit on stock wheels or .420 Max width tire on 17x10 or smaller aftermarket wheel, aluminum wheels ok, , can use stock tires on front

7 Bushings & motor may be glued in place.

8 Bushings may be replaced with metal or plastic & bearings.

9 Flag, braids, and wires may be modified or changed to another brand. Flag must be plastic, may be shimmed lower, complete guide assy be replaced with B-nova/Cg slots

10 Stock body, chassis, and interior. You can lighten the chassis but not the interior, sanding the inside of the body is OK

11 Tires should be under the bodywork.

12 No traction magnets may be used.

This should make for very close racing.

I will ask Allan to help get tracks

Darnit, I've ordered 2 cars in prep for this one! Silly because I have cars I can use already. More choices for me to work with I guess. :)
