Topic: Daytona Prototype

by ftest821 » Mon Dec 24, 2012 6:49 am

This project sat on my bench for quite some time. The problem was that 1+inch rear wheels didn't fit well and the car ran poorly with them. After looking at the Tifosi chassis, I noticed that there were two sets shims that determined the wheel height. I removed one set of shims and viola - The wheels still look "scale" and the car looks and runs much better. Here are couple of images. To see more images click on the photo section of the Electron Raceway Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ElectronRaceway/ and then look at the album entitled Rich's Cars. (you must be a member to look at this section - it takes only a few minutes to join!)
