Very nice, my nationals car was .38 oz but I think I can go lighter. Can't wait for the fires series to start.
This might be my next SS. I named it Bulldog Smash because it's turning from pine to green! You don't want to see me when I'm ANGRY!
I was thinking the same thing w8nonu../images/boards/smilies/smile.gif/images/boards/smilies/smile.gif like the flames BULLDOG!!

I don't know how to measure this Fumbles. It will flex but this is what I keep in mind while building. I've gathered from this forum that flex is not a good thing but where is the line crossed that a light body and the benefit of being able to putt more weight in the rear is overcome by a body that is too flexible? This car is excellent on the tuning board, rears go out quickly and it rolls straight. I have had problems with bodes showing great results on the board but after pockets were drilled the car was awful. After countless bodies and much trial and error I am getting amazing results out of my drills and finished bodies. We'll see how much this translates to the track, I am concerned with flex as fumbles has asked, does anyone have a way to measure this or red flags to look out for?
It's not gonna flex enough to even worry about most of my new cars are completely hollow in the middle

I've tried it both ways, I have found better results drilling before I hollow out.
