    BLACK FOAM TAPE
    The rules for both the ScaleAuto and BRM cars keep mentioning ‘black foam tape’ to buttress wing uprights.

    1. Is this any significantly better than just putting a 1/16in layer of ShoeGoo from the decklid up to the wing, along the uprights?
    2. Is this neoprene type weatherstrip tape we can get at Home Depot/Lowes?
    3. Marty/Ary/Sean do you have any of this tape?

    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.
