Royal Rangers Oil/wax help?

[W racing]

That is a good idea if rules allow for sure.... Not bending the DFW was realy cool though... I forgot that detail...

Actually, for the "raised" wheel, I don't bend the axle or drill the hole higher - I reduce the diameter of the wheel itself. The wheels start off at about 1-1/4" in diameter, and I shave the raised wheel down to about 1" in diameter.

That could end up being an illegal wheel. It would in an NPWDRL race.

No it wouldn't we don't have RR rules or races!!

There is no rule against reducing the diameter of the wheel, or against shaving the wheel into a razor wheel, so that is not a problem in RR races... I just wish I didn't have to use the dowels - the smallest front profile I can get on a car is 1/2" (the dowels are a little over 3/8" in diameter). If I could just place the screws in the body, I could get down to 1/4" or so.

Can someone clarify the best 2nd step wheel bore polish, that I can obtain locally? Im running out of time before the March race and i need to do a reprep. Thanks

This is probably something you'll have to test. Nobody but you knows what you can get locally, sorry.

LJO, you can usually find the Liquid Glass in the automotive stores. You can also try the 3m scratch remover.

When polishing the wheel bores can I use canned compressed air to clear the holes after polishing them/as far as axles go I can clean and then re-polish them with 3M and then brasso and then burnish with graphite I have my son's District race on Saturday

Yes

I'd be in for a Royal Ranger race or even a season of them.
