Re: Delta Slotted Screws - What's their story?

Well I am glad the thread helped me, and those of you that gained some insight as well.

Now, my question as far as these being used, when did Delta Stop using these? I know they were not on the Electric cars (Villian & Phaser) nor were they used on the Fireball.

Thanks again,
-Maurice

Re: Delta Slotted Screws - What's their story?

Delta Slotted Screws - What's their story?

I am looking to find out what the history behind the non-typical Delta only "Concave" Slotted screws is. Were they available in certain grades, etc...

Who is racing on VRC

Just curious, I had raced on VRC years back, when you could race off-line. Now I have checked it out to maybe give it another go, yet I am curious as it seems to no longer support offline racing. Anyone in the know.

Thanks,

Re: Will the ugliness ever end!

I am with you too on this, they all started to look like those rear engine full size crawlers (if you take the wing away - ta...da...). I wish and maybe I am in the minority that the buggies would stay the way they were - "rear seaters". I have said this before, but this reminds me of when...

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread

SG Gemini ? perhaps - I get a bit confused sorry

I know Graupner sold a version I think it had the moniker SLX as well, and came with a Schkee style body. Had red wheels

Kind of like this: http://www.fantasyjunction.com/cars/1148-Schkee-DB-1-Chevrolet%20V8
