Topic: New chassis. (1 replies, posted in For Sale or Trade)
I bought this chassis from Professor Motor several months ago. I paid about $70.00 + shipping. It turned out to be too small for what I needed. $50.00.
When Bill gets time he will post a picture.

Mitch; I like the Bluegroove bodies a lot also. This will probably be the last "thin" body I will do................................I probably said that before.
Bill; I "may" just change the motor to a newer style, or maybe not!! I may just see how this one runs after being in the drawer for the last 20+ yrs!

Re: Projects: Done/Not So Done (256 replies, posted in Rapid Raceway)
New project on my bench. I am building a car for the Flexi NASCAR class. This is an early JK chassis according to Bill that I pulled out of my chassis drawer. I think I raced it at Slot Car Central. I don't think it will do well in the races but I just wanted to bring it out of the moth balls for the hell of it. I bought a THIN Lexan body that is so flexible ( must be about .002" thick ) I have a hard time even holding it! Pictures will show up when my friend Bill puts them on here. The second picture is of my chassis drawer.

I spent some time in the pits also, not any way near what you did. If there is any kind of weakness in a car, Springwater Raceway will find it!! It is a fun track though.

Re: Projects: Done/Not So Done (256 replies, posted in Rapid Raceway)
Mitch, I have learned over the years not to "scavenge" parts, park it and leave it alone and it will pretty much be ready to go next time. I hope you will get it going before the race, the more the merrier.
Looking forward to the race and having a good time.

Re: Projects: Done/Not So Done (256 replies, posted in Rapid Raceway)
I started this project a few months ago. Thanks to Bill I was able to get this Mopar NASTRUCK. This is sitting on a new 2NASTE chassis. There was a problem with the decals. While in the sealed box since 2001 the tires were sitting on top of the decals, ruining a portion of them. That is why you do not see the Hot Wheels decals on the side. I also had to hand paint part of the number 43 on the passenger side, so I am not showing that side!! I had to make do with other decals I had. Looking forward to racing it at the upcoming race this month.
First picture is from the kit box. Second is what I started with. Third is the finished product.
When my good friend Bill finds time he will add pics.

Topic: TA2? (2 replies, posted in Rapid Raceway)
I am considering hosting a TA2 race before the 2022 season is over. The TA2 is collecting dust and I would like to remedy that with a special ( Pizza ) race. I am doing that with the NASTRUCK, why not the TA2?
Who would be interested?

Yea Bill; I spent 3hrs. this morning going over issues: guide flag, guide tongue, front axle, new front tires. I am not using that as an excuse, just some stuff I should have checked way before the race!! At least it should handle better, now I need to fire and hire another driver!!
