Very fun day of racing yesterday Bill, thanks for hosting.
Very fun day Bill. Lots of racing was to be had with the two classes. The track was in good racing condition. Thanks for hosting the race.
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.
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.
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!!

Doc. you need to see a Doc.....................................................the eye Doc!!
Ok, the NASTRUCK is going to Doc. Thanks Doc. Hope you enjoy it.
I am putting this NASTRUCK up for sale. It comes complete except motor, gears and rear tires.
It is a Scholer chassis and has been raced. I am building another one and that will make it 3 and I don't need 3 of them!
We have a NASTRUCK race this month and this is an easy way to get into it.
$75.00.
Rico, if you want, you can bring the car over and solder that pinion on and it will not come loose again.
It is really hard to put enough effort in soldering a pinion on while racing, just too much in a hurry to get back in the race!

Back when I was getting ready to order braid for Rapid, I suggested to Bad Bob about using steel braid, he said: "No, never use steel braid, someone will sneak magnets in their car"!! So magnets will do no good here. But Bill's car ( Bad Bob's chassis ) was like a magnet car!
I was wondering where you were Mr. Bell, not like you to miss a race. Hope to see you at Rapid on the 23rd.
Sorry you had to leave early Rico.
It was a fun night for me despite my ill handling car.
Watching Bill during the race reminded me of what Mario Andretti said one time: "if you think you have complete control, then your not going fast enough"! Bill looked like he was using magnets!! I was in a few heats with him and I kept saying to him " Are you back passing me again so soon"? No way in hell was I even close to keeping up with him. I am happy he took the win.
Great turn out ( 16 entries ) good racing and lots of fun for me and hope every one. Thanks to all who made the trip to Rapid Raceway.

Ok, just talked to Chris, he wants the #6 car. So Matt if you are still interested you have the Beau built car #5.
Ok, I am back.
The way I see it is: Chris asked first for the cars, then Matt wanted them. I would like to do this: Sell one to Chris and one to Matt, but first I have to get a hold of Chris to see if he is still interested. Stay tuned!
