I can tell everyone, I have seen these cars in person and they are spectacular in person. The ano-job done on them is amazing, and they are all built for racing.
Great thread Jeff!

Here's the cars I ran at the worlds in 2003. The B4 was raced up until about 6 months ago. I swapped the graphite chassis I ran in '03 for a plastic chassis and raced that car until I bought my new B4 in October. Then my 12yr old raced it until I finally decided to put the correct chassis back with it and put it on a shelf about 6 weeks ago. The setup is exactly the way I ran it then.

I've had some questions about the anodizing and hard anodize. Below is how the car starts out, after it's cleaned. This one was absolutely disgusting when I got it. I soaked it, scrubbed it and then stuck the pieces in the dishwasher! Once it's in pieces like this I will figure out what color I am going to go with and start getting all the parts for anodizing together. The black car is one I'm working on for my oldest. It was just done in hard black anodize.

Jeff-
Thank-you for sharing the photos of your cars. What additional information can you tell us about your IFMAR Medallion? Is there a logo or writing on the backside?

Thank-you

Great Job Jeff!

How did you secure the battery strap to the rear bulkhead of your Team Car? Did you have to trim any of the Bulkhead for a li-po to fit? Could you take a pic of how the strap attaches to the bulkhead?

Did you use a B4 transmission top shaft in the Team Car transmission? What non Team Car parts did you use?
