The Stinker 2.OH :)



Old Smoke said we should try a little more offset. Well, we do what he says most times :)

Thought about that offset thing for my sporty

The Stinker smells good! Be careful not to go Ovalboard.Also no good if you track is wired to turn Right!
Keen to see if the mod improves lap times.

No right turns for this car sir :)

People will argue this one all the time. But on my track, at the milder speeds we are running, it does not make much difference compared to a straight chassis with a little Flintstone rib of lead on the left. Our last race with Mark was about as close as it gets and we had chassis in 3 different configurations.

But this is a new one, so I will test and report. Who knows? Maybe it will actually work :)

Very cool!

you need to send it up for the inspectors to check out, I think its a bit over, may take some time to check out metallurgy and and see if its been acid dipped :auto-checkeredflag:

Thanks. The fun part of building for me is the options we can choose to "install" :)

My next one will go back to standard though. Just messing with it.

Don't worry about it Harry, I don't get my chassis lined up straight all the time either! :lol:

Seriously, that's pretty cool. and I am curious of lap time/handling differences.

That looks good .it would be a great setup for a hardbodied modified like a vega or a pinto type body .doesnt MT resin make a modified body . I might to try my first 1/32 chassis build in your foot steps with a pinto build.
thanks for the idea

Harry, my first impression is you built yourself a nice oval chassis. If I had needed one, that would have been my approach. Something similar ought to work with Kev's paper modifieds. It'll be interesting to read how it goes on a roadcourse track. :)

I would call this one the "Stinker LTO"!

Looks good - someone pointed out the Stinker chassis was like a return to the early days of scratch building - before angle winders and bat-pans and thingies. I think that is a part of the charm of these builds.

bill from nh -
We have been building the laminated nymodifieds based off of a straight Womp with a little offset - but someone could definitely take it up a notch and do a full offset scratch built chassis...

Harry you sir just keep flippin my lid with your builds whither its a
full car or just a chassie outstanding work indeed

Well thanks guys, appreciate it. Getting some work done, just slow going.

Body mount plate in. Not sure how much offset I will run, I have a little to work with.

Really nice looking ride. If you offset it enough, I could use it to knock Bibbster off on the corners...just sayin'.

That is going to be killer.
When you get her done.
