Hi David On the use of the pin guide. When I have to replace the pin on the strombeckers I use the white pvc plastic from Evergreen products. They come in solid or tube size and also in a lot of different diameters. Larry

I still need one of these. Yours looks great Dave with all the doo-dads added to it. There's nothing like the feeling of accomplishment you get when you see something you built running around the track. 8-)

Nice Scratch Build Dave. :text-bravo: I seen you couldn't get a guide to fit under it. You might want to look at these. They may be the ticket. Heard of guys using them but never tried one.

Don't know how fast the early Midgets went in stadium racing, but I'd guess in a confined space even 50-60 mph would have a fairly profound effect on the bowels!

So huge speed is probably not necessary.
