Thanks. I got a place to start from now.

Doug just texted that the voltage will be 14.3 for OMB.

Well, I got my answer from Doug. Short chassis' in the 4.00" or even shorter are the hot ticket on his Gerding King. Nothing I have even comes close. Going to shorten up the pillow blocks on my...

I have one or two that might work. I have to ask Doug what length chassis works on his King. Nobody is using brass 'n wire chassis. Been over 25 years since I ran one. I think it was a Box-15 race.

OMBOX would be the car I'm looking to run since I have plenty of Gp-12 C-cans. I think I can build a motor to last 8 3 minute heats. With spray glue and no motor changes, I think this is a great Wing...

For those who don't already know...

And these races will be held where??

Yeah Bill. That's the page from the link posted on the radical right wing conspiracy theory forum. I really hate Fakebook but if that's the only place to find info on this thing I'll do it. It just...

Has anyone used this controller? https://slotcarstore.net/pages/Pro-Parts-Controller-with-Anti-Brake-Choke-and-chi---W132222.html

It is way more controller then I need but it looks like it has all...

Crash,
Before you leave blogging, could you tell me the major differences between how a Box-l2 wing car motor is built vs. a ES flat track car. I have gp-l2 motors that were all originally built...

I'm sure Grp-F cars don't need the high quality high speed big dollar bearings used in 27 or even l2 cars. In some cases they can be had for less money than a set of oilites. Doesn't help raceways...

Trolls will be trolls,

In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous,...

I made the same point somewhere about this. I think I said something to the effect of " the flag hasn't flown on the final lap " .

"Brush-contained motor"


You're going to have to be more specific. There has been a bumper crop of new motors that that fall within that description. From hot drag only grenades to near Gp-l2...

Just my 2 cents...

Payout is not the primary draw for successful race programs. Just look at irra racing. Big turnouts. Big races. Big names. NO payout. Just end of series handouts, gifts and...

I use Mobil-1 0-20 in everything. I mix a little bit of Marvel Mystery Oil in to add color and that familiar oil of wintergreen smell. Some say 5-20 M-1 is better for BBs.

You should really wait till you're sober before posting.:)

Thanks zipper. I fixed it. Cut 'n paste snafu.

So does anybody think Jack Tate built and raced this car? I'm buying something else from this guy and will inquire about his documentation.

Saw Jack Tate's name mentioned here after a search of the interweb. So here is a car up for sale on Craigslist, LI NY. Philippe has already declared it complete BS. I agree. But for your...

You pay for the Koford sticker. What? You think they grow on trees? :p

It is small and fits in your slot box. I have to carry my Gophert l0 amp in a separate bag.

Here is the l0 amp on ebay...

He was the auctioneer. He had no concerns other than getting paid for the track and getting it out of the building. I'm sure it's whereabouts will surface eventually.

Closing line...

"By the end of the decade the slot car craze was on it's final lap"

Really? That last lap has taken 50 years and the checkered flag hasn't flown on it yet.

WOW...

I knew that whoever wrote that song had to be right there in the heyday of it all. I can appreciate the song even more now that I know the back story.

Now will somebody tell me the...

Saw some on ebay. Have you looked?

The drag racers at Slots-a-lot have started a spec class using the Phoenix. They like it. One second and change run time.
