I have 15 mins in this car so far.. I have a few more modification to make to it.. But it's for fun.. And a even playing field !
Not sure how this is an even playing field, but I will.enjoy raving against one of the best.

And there you have it ladies and gentlemen. A rare glimpse inside the maestro's lab.

His stable looks strong and he has to be thinking to himself that The Eccentrics hiatus from the sport will leave him looking flat footed.

He is actually taking on a FEW builders for the rare opportunity to win a pink from him.
That would be quite the feat knowing his determination and talent.

Yes there is a few new cars in the stables... But that's just a few things I been working on.. And notice I made the picture smaller.. Lol can't reveal everything lol.. Thanks for the compliment!!

LOL!

You are adaptable.

Sorry to veer off topic but this seems like as good a spot as any.

Is it legal to hang weights between the rails in NPWDRL?

Many thanks,
Joe
I caution against it unless you want to watch it flip into the stop section. Trying to remember whos car it was but it was terrifying watching it do flips at the end of the track.

DO I WANT TO WATCH IT FLIP OVER THE STOP SECTION?! OF COURSE I D...

Er. I mean, that would be horrible.

Perhaps a teflon undercarriage? It may take some misguided ingenuity but I am sure I have it in me.

Thanks for the heads up.
 
Laser, here's a pic of the underbelly of my car Chorizo I was telling you about. The weight is pretty low on it. Haven't tested it yet but I'll let you know. And the cat got in the pic all on her own this time haha

ACME made one like that but I don't remember if it did flips.
 
That cat is a total ham!

Usually the kittens I see in car photos have big balloons up front.

Nice fenders fella. We are looking for a soft belly landing on re-entry.

Just like Capt. Sullenberger on the Hudson

Hey Eccentric,

Is that hole near the front for steering a 5Kinds axle holder?

Thanks

It was ACME. I wish I could remember the month. I think it is on video.
 
No. It's referring to the journal portion of the axle, the part that makes contact with the wheel bore.

There was a car going down the track like that at MA this year. Fortunately there was nothing on the outside for it to hit. While I was hoping to see a wreck, I would not want to see another car ruined.
