That's my "Embershot"...

Yes, RMS Nova.

Wheels and tires.

On the inserts, I test fitted these and they look fine to me.

Your chassis are so clean! Mine look nasty compared to yours lol. But it seems to run fine so I'm ok with that!

Good start - The wheel and tire package looks like it would also work on an open wheel vintage asphalt modified in 1/32.

Very cool.

Thanks. Yes, with the variety Paul makes combined with the wheels SCC cranks out, we have it pretty good for a lot of roundy-rounders.

Not much done tonight. Did get the chassis to roller state.

Thanks guys...magic? That is what it will take. Chassis is the easy part...painting and detailing are NOT my best skill sets...lol
