Wide front axles... wider is better, correct?

Do you like? My local track is selling them and has found that they are quite nice.

They are super soft compound and have the same characteristics as many of the JConcepts offerings.

That really does look great! I'm in the process of restoring a A-stamp and I just purchased a 1990 C-Stamp team car in the box. I'm looking to do something similar to my new team car, street tires, and maybe a world's paint job.

Thanks for the complements.

Please share your team car project.

Do you run it or is it a shelf queen;)


Speaking of shelf queens;), I've almost finished my A-stamp 1984 original Cadi gold tub.all the parts are California correct except for the reproduction body, and the addition of a modern brushed speed controller and battery. Still waiting on a couple of small things like wing support tubes lower shock axles, and dog bone dust seal covers, but that's it. Oh yeah and I ordered a set of reproduction pro- line tires and rims so I don't feel guilty running around every once in a while.

I finally just ordered a brand-new team truck kit so I have something to really beat on!!
