Topic: Dave Smith & Brian Tooley visit on Saturday Feb.27, 2021

Dave Smith and Brian Tooley came up to visit from the Woodburn and Salem area. Dave brought with him a small fleet of Parma Womp cars. Now I have always enjoyed racing Womps, but Dave has these things dialed in! They run great and I can see where they would provide some very close fun racing at a low cost. At some point I was planning to have some sort of a Womp class as part of the racing program (whatever that ends up being) here at Inslot's Checkered Flag. Talking with Dave and running his cars I think I am close to having a set of rules to put to paper.

Here's some photos of some of Dave's Womps.

Dave's Womps run so smooth it is hard to believe they are Womps! His recipe for Womp success is pretty simple, H&R 18K motor, 9 tooth pinion gear, 27 to 29 tooth crown gear, stock front wheels & tires, and a maximum of 1/2 inch wide rear tires. No bracing or modifications of the chassis, and no weight added.

Dave Smith had this awesome 1/24 Ford listed on Ebay. I missed out on it losing in the last 2 seconds of the auction......

I have a couple of my WOMP chassis set up like that, they do run great.
