Are you asking about any time period, or just vintage? There is the Losi Slider out currently. Custom Works also.

Custome Works has "The Outlaw" very high end race machine.

The Losi Slider is a great value though. They can hang with The Outlaws on our oval also. It can handle a lot of power and be very stable. 8)

They make a 1/18th Slider also.

That's a Harper-

Kendrick, Big Boys Toys, Coyote, Ascot, BME were all vintage-
As well as some Customworks Enforcers.

After that, Harper, Klien, Bullet Proof Chassis, Customworks and TLR chassis

Currently- Customworks is the only full kit, although Putnam, JRC, Hyperdrive and others have conversions.

bolink released a few sprint cars back in the day.

one was based off their legends ladder chassis. it was called the All Star Sprinter.

one was based off their invader chassis. it was called the Outlaw Sprint Car.

one was based off their round tracker chassis. it was called the Round Tracker II Sprint Car.

and lets not forget that bolink also made a sprint car body for the rc10. i know associated made a sprint car wing kit. i do not know is associated ever made a sprint car body to go with it, but i expect that that did. does anybody else here know if a sprint body was ever available from associated?

Hah! That cracks me up. I swear where I found it the guy claimed custom. I may be wrong though. Looks sharp as hell though. I'll have to look up some of those other companies. I'm sure it's cheap! :shock:

It is, its a custom GSX conversion by Jeff Harper. Matter of fact, I'm 99% it was his personal car-
