I'm not sure how well you can see them, but I cut new axle grooves this morning. Yup, another Chrysler 300 chassis...had to lengthen the wheelbase quite a bit, but the Studebaker body is pretty heavy...had to use a plastic chassis

This was one of my trucks from the Vehicle Hauler Series last year...minus the go cart. It's got some new wheels on it...and it's kinda speedy!
- must be good if it was worth a fresh set of sneakers... — Traction-Event
- It's speedy, TE :) — 72_Chevy_C10
Chris, can you post the build rules and weight in the main post. New racers need the info to build.
- rulez? ahh, we no need no stinking rulez!! (lol) — CrzyTrkrDude
- That's weird...the first post dissappeared. Any help, Brian? — 72_Chevy_C10
I just updated the first post. And, I'm still looking for hosts...they are fun cars to run and it should be a good race!
- We can do it on the 10th if ya need us.. — Rusty
- Okay, Rusty...I'll pencil you in! — 72_Chevy_C10

- Of course, I did say "fenderless", didn't I? — 72_Chevy_C10
- detail...details... powder blue devils.... let em run! — Traction-Event
- I'm not too worried about it, TE...It's the correct era...I'm just busting chops! :) — 72_Chevy_C10

A mock up of my one Hot Rod. This will probably be the prize car for the Hot Rods...it's a Smitty chop top...with a little work by me! AND it actually makes 35 grams!
Oh, and the Studebaker Tow Truck will be the prize for the Trucks!
- shaping up nicely — Traction-Event
- Thanks TE...I'll probably put the axles tubes in tonight :) — 72_Chevy_C10

Okay, Guys...the gauntlet is thrown down! This is the car you you be racing for in the Hot Rod division! But you have to get past it! :)
Upon further inspection my rod tips the scale at 37g... Looks like I'll need to build something else...
I can race the cars in Oct 17th but, it may not be on that exact day (the 18th likely)
