Audi is good, it's German (or close enough).

And if it's a concept car that's fine as long as it's an "official" model of a maker like Audi. So if it's a Jaguar XKD Prototype, that would be valid to enter.

Thanks, this will be my third build for this race. My other 2 were fast but just not fast enough.

"That was a kind of VW wasn't it?"
Yup, a VW "Thing" The aerodynamics of a brick.

Decisions...Decisions. Not sure what to work on yet, starting my search with cars that roll poorly (FTE cars excluded)

The Fantasy League ratings/records may help you decide which model of car to use as a base. Lots of options.

Out of that photo, the 928 is a pretty good roller on the RLD track.

Brian, the 928 is fast as it sits....

I have another car in mind.....before I get too far along with this car. I need to know if it is legal. I believe it is sold as a Porsche P-911, but the base of the car just has Hot Wheels 1998. Like the 308 listed above, I want to be sure I am working on a viable project.

I got one of those within the past two years--a blue one--and I'm pretty sure it said "Porsche [of some sort]" on the package, if that helps any.

many castings found in a 5 or 10 pack don't have the names cast into the base !

If it's not stamped on the bottom but is otherwise clearly a Porsche or whatever, then it's fine. I have some of the unstamped cars too. Just in the case of that one Ferrari it was given a different name for whatever reason by Hot Wheels so I see that as another class. This is how I keep Fantasy League cars organized so I just need to keep things consistent so I don't confuse myself.

The Porsches I have in my collection came from a 5-pack and are unstamped too so no worries. I don't want to be a nazi, just want to be fair and have it not be too much of a headache for myself.

Just a bump to get anyone that still wants to get in on this tournament. Post a reply if to enter.
Current entrants are shown on the first page, double-check yourself there.

I see we have 8 racers committed, if no one else joins will we be allowed to enter more than one car? Personally the more different racers, the better.


Don't forget me!!!!! Sending out the Wild Thing this weekend.
