2 more went out to you today :) Hey, not complaining but the clear coat on the #1 car? Little too shiny and not sure if that is legal :)

Ok, thanks.

You do have a scale wind tunnel for testing right?

Well, when mine gets there, don't look at the tail of it. It still needed some finish work on the tail panel. OOPS

Nice to see some of the cars showing up at the track!

I am still spraying / brushing paint yet - so mine has to wait a bit before making the trip! :scared-eek:

"Hopefully" I still have time for everything to get good and dry before going into the box for the ride out west as the paint job is turning out pretty nice so far!
Looking forward to seeing my "Golden BB" out there with the rest of the field in the very near future! :dance:

This is going to be good! I do think those greens clash though and the cars should be separated more ;p

Them are looking good together. Mine will probably be the last one there. Waiting on another set of tires. :(

No. I don't know what happen to one of them. I haven't run it but maybe 100 laps. First set of PG's I've tried and not sure I like them.

One side has more wear. Like twenty thou smaller. Not smooth. Ripple effect to it. Nothing is rubbing. Body screws tight. Weight balance side to side within a gram or two. Never seen a rubber tire wear like these or a Yellow Dog.
