Topic: NASCAR.

New for 2015 and beyond: the NASCAR class will be split in two. Sprint Cup for the builders who want to build an open chassis. Nationwide for the non builders using a spec Scholer chassis. The cars will be raced together and scored separate.

Re: NASCAR.

Great format Howie!

There is some excellent racing going on at rapid Raceway! The atmsophere friendly and the racers are eager to help new enthusiasts! If you have thought about racing 1/24 you owe it to yourself to come and check out what's happening at Rapid Raceway! The Schoeler chassis cars Howie has introduced make building a car much easier than scratchbuilding, and the cars are proving to be competitive with the scratchbuilt cars. This NASCAR series should be lots of fun!

Re: NASCAR.

Where do you get these chassis?

Re: NASCAR.

Take a look at these, I'm sure Howie can suggest other outlets.

Re: NASCAR.

Howie just put an order in for chassis. He will have them available for purchase at Rapid Raceway, along with parts.

Re: NASCAR.

Right now Professor Motor is out of stock on the Scholer chassis we most use. They will e-mail me when they get more in. Right now I have 3 reserved for racers who want them, and two for the parts bin, If you want one let me know.
Monte is right on with his Professor Motor page. Grid 1 is where the $80.00 Scholer is.
Just today I added the Scholer breakdown on the NWTSR site. Click on Forum then click on Pit Stop, then Scholer chassis. You don't need to spend $80.00 on the chassis in the picture to be competitive. I bought one just to try it out, a $44.95 chassis will work as well with little work.

Re: NASCAR.

Still no Scholers and I think it is time to choose another chassis that is comparable to the Scholer and is close to the price as possible.
Due to the Scholer situation, I have made the Indy class an open chassis. Build or buy. I am really hoping to get our last class on the books for next season (2016).
We had our first Rapid 500 and raced the Sprint Cup and the Nationwide together and scored separate. The scoring really was a piece of cake!

Re: NASCAR.

Thanks to Bill, we now have another choice in chassis for the non builders ( Nationwide ). This chassis is SP800001, Sloting Plus makes this chassis and it is a very close copy of the Scholer, with improvements. It is made of stainless steel. For a closer look, check out the page " New chassis available for Rapid Raceway" under Rapid Raceway on this site.
