My decals arrived from England and the numbers are 3 or 4 not the 6 and 7 originally indicated. So I want my number to be either 3 or 4 to allow the single digit number on the nose. Anyone already using 3 or 4?
Too bad the IROC SlotWings 911s are not like my Fly Rally. It is pictured attached with the 3d chassis. I started off as a white kit decaled to Ludwig Heimrath IMSA Radial car. As you see I have ordered the 3d chassis. If we ordered the chassis for the IROC cars it starts getting expensive, we would also probably order new motors, etc. Any hope?
The difficult part is not the driving, but the acquiring of 8-12 cars before they are sold out. At some reasonable price I would start buying them for a club series myself. Do you believe we would get participation for stock, or all equally modified, drivers?
My black hardtop was the orange car shown and I have the red lemans roof car unmolested. I want to get the black car running, even if not competitive because that guy at the Revival always shows up looking so tough. It may be entered, but not raced as they say. I am getting outside assistance.
I looked at many Cobras at the vintage races in recent years and the whole rear fender on the 427 was wider than the 289 parked next to it.
How can I tell my MRRC cobra is a 427? It has the short removable hardtop and I have one with the longer removable hard top that I was not preparing. I want to try the MRRC chassis with the SCC adjustable front axle carriers. Stop me now if It is a 427.
I have 300 laps on my mostly stock Corvette with 25k motor and stock gears. The front guide is the deep wood guide. There is some lead in the chassis now. In front of the front tires were two posts on the chassis that did not serve any purpose other than to groove my low profile tires and stop any coasting! They have been clipped. My best lap today was 4.195 driving pretty conservatively, only pulling the trigger 100% on the front straight most of the way out of the curve. Very little brake and nice slow sensitivity. I decided not to change the drive train until we figure out what works better than stock. Drive for me April 10th while I am at the Leander baseball game. All the best, for I hope, my last semi-“proxy” race.
I fully planned to race my Corvette in person, but my grandson is pitching his last high school season and the game this week is Saturday. I will leave my car at the club and you can decide to run it or not in the race.
here 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.
Note to self today. Check the voltage meter so that I don’t try to improve my lap times while running squirrelly on 12 volts instead of the required 11 volts. I wondered why I kept adding lead and no improvement.
Is that fair for some cars to have 10″ wide wheels and others 8″ wide wheels? I assume the 10″ wide wheels also have wider tires from Racer, but if we restrict tires to f30 slot.it’s it would be all even, right?
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)?
I’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.
I don’t think I have been able to log in to the individual TTS website, or the individual BRM website. Have you been able to. The retailers seem to have them jumbled like the “catalogue” pages you pasted.
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.
