And suddenly all is right with the world although it's a little tail happy.

Bromos,
Great looking Camaro you have there. Hopefully it will be seeing the tail-lights of one of my Cudas!!!!!!! Now which one I don't know yet. Got some parts from SCC yesterday. I'll hope to finish them up this weekend.

[Brumos RSR]

I've been seeing your tail lights a lot lately in the G5, SCCA, MR Can Am. Everyone is racing forward. Me, I'm in reverse since my 3rd in the Pan Am, 4th in the Slot It SO and 5th in the Porsche Ford War.
And my most precious, 10th in the Group 5. Well now I'm feeling good about my past builds.... Let's race for pinks!!! As I've found a few RPM ( thanks for the braid tip) :auto-nx: :auto-layrubber:

Yes Sir,
You are welcome on the braid tip. I plan to test one of the cars (#42) with rubber tires this weekend. That is if SCC first class mail gets here by Saturday. Well it shows shipped yesterday so may have it by Friday. So we'll see if rubber tires makes a difference and if going to a solid axle vs the stock independent stub axles makes a difference. The (#89) Is still leading the pack. (#48) may get new tires as well. Not sure how long the tires will last before the Spur gear starts rubbing the track. I am excited about all three of my Cudas. Not sure what is wrong with the Challenger.

Tracking update shows expected delivery on Saturday.

Well, my car is pretty much ready to go now, just a little more testing then it's in the mail:

S-750 01.jpg

Scalex Camaro body that I re-sprayed in my regular racing colors and my favorite number. Wheels inserts are BWA.

Underneath - Piranha power, ScaleAuto guide, 64DP commercial racing gears, Slot.it wheels and tires, N22 at the rear, regular fronts ground down a bit.

Allan,

This year’s offering is on its way north as of today. Yup, it’s painted like a lake trout (last years destroyed Barracuda had the color scheme of a catfish). Will this one make it further than our traditional back of the field?... not a clue, but maybe if the wheels stay on this time....

We have never been able to get a car to decently get around any of the PDRs (or The River Run for that matter), but maybe this year starting a Trans-Am car in Massachusetts will change our luck (glass half horse full).



...ok, you mean to tell me there’s nobody out there that’s willing to admit that their workbench looks like that???
