Car body

[Reggie]

I was watching a few YouTube videos of the league racing. Is it me or the way the cars look on video? They appear to be narrower in the front than back of the car. Do they measure 1 3/4 front to back? Our pack rules don't allow the wheels to be any less than that.

 

[Reggie]

Like box stock and basx.

At the races I've attended most cars are narrowed about 1/16" on the DFW side in most classes. The modified and unlimited cars are narrowed more.

 

[Reggie]

That's what I was thinking. I knew about the 1/16 notch on the DFW side. I just didn't think it would look like both sides where tapered. Optical illusion I guess.

 

[Reecedad]

I've seen taper on both sides in modified and unlimited

 

[Reggie]

Yeah. I was watching some basx and box stock races. Those cars appeared to be tapered on both sides it must be 1/16 notch doing it. I'm just trying to pickup as much info as I can. I want to give league racing a try John said skip box stock and race basx.

I've been working on box stock for awhile and I think I agree.

Definitely go with BASX. Better parts and easier build.

Hey Reggie,, the YouTube vids by Joel Redfern which is the NPWDRL series, watch those too because at the end Joel shows a straight down over head shot of the winning cars so you will be able to see exactly the shape. The BASX cars do seem to just keep a consistent width front to back other than the notch.
Hope that helps some. I love Joel’s vids. Just lol him up. The channel is just his name.
Now if you already have been watching his vids just disregard my ramblings.
