Outstanding...just outstanding.

Thanks for this great effort sir. What a keeper. In fact, I think we should.

Thanks Harry :D

Please feel free to copy any or all of that for the oval racing section of the site.. I can send you a Word
document of it as well of the edited version.. I just changed the wording on a few things. It was late when
I wrote that and messed a few things up LOL..

Those cars are really nice!

[Modlerbob]

They are very nice looking. The one in your build demo appears to be 1/24th scale. Have you done any in 1/32nd and do you have an example chassis/motor set up in 1/32nd?

[turbokev]

All my cars are 1/32 Bob.

EDIT: to clarify.. The mods use a 3 1/4" wheelbase chassis meant for 1/32 scale cars..
I'm using S-can motors, 3/32 axles, slot it gears etc.. but if detailed measurements were taken
I think these cars I'm racing would be slightly larger than 1/32 scale (but definitly not 1/24)

Kevin,

Thank you for showing us how to make some great cars so simply. We really need to get you over here to race some more (or we could invade your abode)!

Thanks Harry~ :text-thankyouyellow:


Hi Bob.. Hard to get away without the kids and they are not quite ready for a day or racing yet (Cooper is real close)
I planned to be at SCC yesterday but I broke several ribs last week in a fall and driving is still painful..
I'm trying to secure a Saturday here for an invasion.. I like invasions LOL. I'm building one of these Mods for Cliff and
I've got a few loaners as well..they are a blast~ Hope to see you and the rest of the NE guys soon!

Is there a blank template to make my own?

[Modlerbob]

I'm still not clear about the chassis. Is it available as shown or would I have to cut and bend some steel or brass?

Hello Kev,

Some first class work there - well done! Thank you for taking the time to document and take pictures of the end-to-end process. The finished cars are very realistic looking!

These are totally cool ... J Y D

[turbokev]

Thanks all..

I just made a substantial update to the top post.. Moved some things around to make it more clear and
I added a section for the build up of the altered chassis that is available as well..

If anyone has an interest in these Mods, that post should just about cover everything..

Any questions, feel free to reach out to me~
