The big box rolled in today from Cali. Had a little Post office trouble with a couple of them. The rest are fine, Harry and Shotguns car need some attention. The weather has turned here for the worse, so I will try and get some laps in with them this weekend if I can. And I will report back of course! Some very cool cars in this lot. A lot of creativity for sure!

Bob

Woohoo! More P-BOPPIN!

I was just wondering where they were and here they are. Have fun with them, Bob. Are you running them on both tracks?

Cheers,

Keith

Keith I think I will just run these on the oval, as they seem to be a little better suited for that. If time permits, I might still give them a go on the road course, who knows, it might be a hoot!

Bob

We've got all the time in the world. I know mine can run road courses as that's all I've got, but I will leave it up to you. When they get here it will be a couple of road courses and my club-mate Mike will have Luf's old Bullring set up by then. We will run it last, as the cars cross lanes with each other every lap. Great fun. See it here - http://www.oldslotracer.com/Bullring1.html

My car has been a trouble-maker from the start.

Hit with hammer and check. Repeat as needed.

Harry, I think the post office already did. Dave and I are working on the problem. but it may have to run as a zipper top.
Very Sorry
Bob

So, in the pic at the top I see seven cars lined up. Harry's sedan and Dave's pickup are in the shop. What is happening to yours, Bob? I hope it is fixable, but if it isn't I have a solution. Since none of us except Dave know what yours looks like, just substitute any of the multitude of hot rods you have there that fit the category (pre 1948). That should give you lots of options, eh? With only one race in the books, you could still win this thing. Since I am the Grand Poobah of this proxy, I have spoken, and we want you to have a car in this. Ten is a better number than nine, right?

Cheers,

Keith

Keith, Just about everything on that table was built from the parts box! I will toss one in that fits the criteria.


Bob

I know mine will be it's twitchy overpowered self no matter what the venue is - the more tracks and styles of tracks the better I say! :D

No worries Bob, I'll proudly take a DNF :) Stuff happens. No one's fault. So don't waste time on my heap, I'll fix it up later with a new body.

I don't like to brag, but I know the guy who makes these bodies. :)

I just sent you a pm with the bad news evidence. sure sorry about this.
I hear the Sedan mold is still in good shape, so there is hope yet!

Bob

Who can Argue with the Grand P-POBAH-BOP-P,??? Whatever?
lol

Bob

Bob, I thought your collection would have a replacement to race. Scratch builds pretty well all fit the parts box theme.

I am guessing from the comments that Harry's sedan is missing a chunk, or all of its roof. If it still runs, I say run it as it is. It won't break the camera, and they may all look like that by the end of this thing.

Cheers,

Keith
