Yes to screw in wood track guides. Happy New Year for something I know.
What is the consensus among the top car prep and drivers about the chassis, motor pod, and tires. I just started baking the chassis’ last year or 2018, but don’t know about the hardness on our track. Come on guys, give up the good parts numbers.
Aren’t these the cars with wheels that have some air chamber ribs? Did we change those, or modify them, to make tire truing better?
I really hope I am allowed to compete on Saturdays in this class, but I would just like to have a car that drives great when I am by my self at HQ with the sound system blasting. I was thinking last night that I might bring the amp and guitars to check the acoustics at HQ. I only play into headphones with youtube wired into the amp, except for rare times my wife is out of the house. Maybe we could start a house band, The KN95’s or Twin Turbos.
Stay Safe, I want to pass each of you at the finish line in 2021.
Randy – No need to bake the NSR chassis. They are made from a different material and don’t take to baking like the Slot It’s harder plastic chassis. The stock chassis seems to work well. The white one is the next one of choice. NSR also makes a green super hard chassis but I don’t know if there is a big difference between the white and green from a performance standpoint.
I would keep the stock motor pod and run it. These are typically red in color.
Wheels and tires – I would run the stock ones as they are the SuperGrip tires that seem to work well on our track. NSR also makes an UltraGrip tire but they are almost too sticky for our track. The wheels will be the ones with the ribs and the air chamber in the center. You can run those but you have to make sure you glue the tires to the rims to avoid wheel chatter in the turns.
Goodluck with your set up!
WHEELS – I believe there are some triple-rib wheels, that could be legal.
Also – the donuts used to fill the air-gap in the Thunderslots would work …
as would O-rings (I have the sizes written down somewhere …) as we used on the AllSlot Formula cars a few years back."... get on your bad motor scooter and ride!"
Sammy with MontroseI’m going to order a long wood track screw mount guide. I do not think we should go with the lexan cockpit because I like the full cockpit look. Allow any Shark 25 or less. I may order the hard chassis if you allow that and the wise tuners use them, but not a new motor pod.
The Professor Motor site calls the deep wood guide NSR NSR4859 Deep Wood Guide with High Performance Screw Mount. Is the the one you meant as our option instead of 4869 (not listed)?
GUIDE is 4859, correctly stated in the rules.
Rules are current and correct. If not – let me know 😈

Sammy with MontroseGuys I have listed all the generic parts that are either mandatory (so u can buy spares) or Optional. Sorry – I will not list ALL model specific parts such as the Hard White chassis or Extra Hard Green chassis – you are smart enough to find and buy those.
Options: Chassis OEM Black/Medium hardness; Recommended: Hard-White or Extra-Hard-Green chassis
Examples: ASV WH1459, GR1488; C7 WH1492, GR1494; R8 WH1475, GR1486; Z4 WH1463, GR1489 etc.

HOT: 31/11 = 2.82 ~ rear wheel RPM 8,127 IFFY 30/11 = 2.73 ~ 8,395"... get on your bad motor scooter and ride!"
Sammy with MontroseUPDATE: Any NSR gears are allowed. If you have an older GT3 car that you can make legal for this series – whatever NSR gears you have in it can be used. Whatever pinion and spur diameter (OD) combinations you can make work will be OK.
Required: OEM Pinion: 6.45mm-DIA 11z NSR-6911A (NSR does not have any other 6.45 pinions)"... get on your bad motor scooter and ride!"
Sammy with MontroseThat is a beautiful car. Can’t wait for the series to begin.
Do we know how many people will be participating in this series?
NSR GT3 TEAM OWNERS – Please ‘register’ yourself and car here:
— Identify the car you plan to enter (livery/#/driver name; or vintage/white-kit/test GT3s with model/color/# etc. Optionally: add image from your phone, the WWW, of the model you plan to enter.
— If you are entering a custom livery an image of the full size car is OK
— Duplicates Permitted – as usual please change the Number, Wing Color etc.
— Write name on bottom of car with silver or white Sharpie"... get on your bad motor scooter and ride!"
Sammy with Montrosehere is my car and i will race either proxy or in person. I will not change the number or anything else except maybe add a BFG decal. Yes it is sitting in front of Mr. NSR Corvette’s pit box.
Looks great Randy; looking forward to you racing 1×1 again!
P.S. If anyone is using the Thunderslot Foam Donuts; the “donut holes” can be trimmed to be used as Wing supports.
— Cut one edge flat; measure wing strut length (appx 4-5mm); cut bottom flat; trim leading and trailing edges with angular cuts. Keep width to match the top (fattest part) of the struts.
— After the angles look good; glue to the inside of the wing struts with a small dab of ShoeGoo.
100% Optional"... get on your bad motor scooter and ride!"
