Yeah that wood track is SWEET! Nice and smooth and a lot of fun!!!
It has a nice mix of long "straights" (although the only truly straight section is where they go through the timing section - all the others have some degree of curvature to them) and tight turns / S's that make the track a LOT of fun to race on! :)
The last class of racing every Wednesday finishes on that track and we have a blast whether it is stock t-jets, the Rigs, magnet cars or super stocks! :D

The paint is stripped!



Next up will be priming and laying the white base coat on Thursday (it doesn't show in the pics - but the base plastic is kind of an off white and there is some variation in color / swirls in it) :)

This is just neat to see. Looks like a lot of fun.

[HomeRacingWorld]

LOL, I like that. What camera did you use?

[TuscoTodd]

Harry - it was actually done with a friend's iPhone. :)

[TuscoTodd]

While not going quite as quickly as I had hoped due to other distraction - there has been headway!

Decals printed and ready for clear:



Both colors laid down on the trailer - just waiting for the clear to dry on the decals
(tractor is in solid red base coat - waiting for accessories to be painted)



If all goes well, I will laying on the decals on the trailer tonight. :)

[TuscoTodd]

A little update of the trailer "assembled" so the decals can dry good before clearing. Pretty happy with how it is coming together so far! :)

What a nice job, I love the work.

[TuscoTodd]

Thanks guys! Working on the tractor portion now - hopefully will have that done in the next couple days. :)

Looks great!

[TuscoTodd]

After some minor delays - I finally finished the detail painting on the tractor to go with the trailer!
While far from perfect, I am really happy with how this turned out and think it will look great out there racing with the other rigs! :)

I remember JC Whitney!

I haven't received one of their catalogs in years!

That is awesome that you did a rig up for that company!

I always liked all the Jeep CJ parts they carried back then!

:D :D :D
