Just curious what kind of lead time there is for shipping? I ordered almost two weeks ago and haven't received my order yet, and my race day is fast approaching. Thanks.

I'll check Hobby Lobby for that too while I'm out today. Oops, they're closed, guess no luck for me!

Thanks for the tip! A HL opened up near us recently, so I'll check for it when I'm out tomorrow.

I have the axle polish materials, up to 2000 grit sandpaper. Do you guys generally go beyond that? I'm more curious about the wheel bore polishing, which I was going to get the Walgreen's q tips to do. Is there a way other than a caliper to pick out the ones that will work, or would it be...

I bit the bullet so to speak and bought the Silver Bullet today. I could justify the cost since it went on sale. Thanks for everyone's input. Now to see how square my drill press is and go from there!

Do you use sharpies over paint, or how do you use the sharpies?

Thank you. Was it you who used it to win the pack?

Thanks for the link, and the reminder. I don't usually frequent forums that have kids on them, and just didn't think about it when I made my post. I have edited it to be more kid appropriate. So just to be clear, the wheel bore polishing kit is considered waxing the bores? Or is there an...

Does anyone have a link or a good description of how to properly wax the bores?

We're getting ready to build our cars again for this year's Powderpuff derby so I've been spending a lot of time reading about how to make our cars faster. I thought I'd share pics of our builds for the last two years. Thanks to everyone for sharing build tips. My youngest daughter has taken 1st...

Not sure where it is but keep me in mind if you get it back. I haven't heard back from Goatboy. Thanks.
