    1. Can we move Thunderslot discussions to the thread that Randy started? ThunderSlot thread
    Otherwise this may turn into a mixed Thunderslot & Revoslot discussion – in the long run for non-club readers it may be easier for them to follow, plus for our historical reference it may be easier for us.
    2. 2nd Dibs on White Dana #52 White/Dana-LugunaSeca 1967 Peter Revson but changing number from #52 to #21 and sponsor changes (to not clash with Jordan’s #52).
    3. Specs Recommendations:
    — Keep Front plastic wheels-allow ThunderSlot upgrade Zero-Grip tires 16X9mm (TYR003FR)
    — Allow Rear ThunderSlot upgrade tires 19X10mm(TYR004R standard) and wheels 15X10mm(RMR002AL)
    — Allow above pan weights, including Slot.It 2.5g slug (SISP23)
    — Allow Slot.It DeepWood Guide (SICH07)
    — 11volts seems fine-these cars dip into the 3’s with a little tuning and some practice.

    At 4-years old in Pensacola I repaired my steering linkage on my Ford Pedal-car. Dad later converted this car to a Blue Angel with ailerons and elevators with a working "stick/yoke"; the rudder was controlled by the steering wheel. I like all motorsports - I grew up going to a NASCAR Feeder track with Sportsman and Modified classes, and was lucky to attend drag races in 1970 at Orange County Raceway. My first solder-iron was a Christmas gift at 9yo; I modified T-Jets to be AFX spec before AFX Cars were in local stores. I rebuilt a few tractor & car (SIMCA) engines plus transmissions by 15yo (I still have my ring-compressor and valve spring tool) I am a former mountain and road bike geek & perennial sound engineer.
