My Attempt at a custom RC10 Oval Car, Suggestions please! Im probably going with the 10T front plate and Klein arms, for 10" width, have tried a DS plate for the less kickup, and a stock buggy front plate but, I already ordered a McAllister bakersfield LM body (10") wide thinking thats the width it would be but every combo I've tried so far is less than 9" thus the 10T plate and Klein arms.
Any suggestions then, I have already ordered a McAllister #237 Bakersfield Late Model body 10” wide because this is what was suggested for a buggy conversion, I plan on running SC10 front hex conversion axles and spindles so the wide gt spindles are out of the question. I also plan on running hex adapters on the rear axle so I can potentinally run four of the same wheels. To be honest I have no idea what wheels and tires I will be running yet so suggestions there would be great as well. unfortunately the track I plan on running this on is not even bought or built yet (just got overly excited at custom building a new car!).

I have been trying to use the search on this site, don't know if it's this crap Iraq internet. Some sites are not too accessible. If there is a thread for this somewhere, gladly refer me and delete this thread.
On with it, I'm just wondering if...

A guy at my local track has a dirt oval car and he doesnt know what it is, it has a stealth tranny but that is about all we can figure out.

Actually, many of the parts are no longer available directly from Team Cobra.
Tell your friend to check out because they seem to have a load of Cobra parts still available. They even still sell NIB Nemesis kits. I ordered some Cobra rear arm...
Been awhile since I have posted anything new. Have barely found the time to visit the board let alone build anything. Got some free time over the weekend and wrapped up a couple stalled projects.
This one is a BME oval chassis with some random...

very nice. i have a bme build going on now too. not sure which way i want to go, dirt oval or asphalt oval with a sk body.
i like your chassis bracing. i'm using a&l's at them moment but yours looks sharp!
Im sure the dementions will depend on this or that. The only thing I know is we will mostly be running 1/8 and 1/10 whatever . Maybe just tell me about the largest and smallest youve been to and which you like for running what. Heck, whatever you...
Just wanted to share a few pics of this modified dirt oval modified before I stripped it for resale. I'm not sure about the chassis. Maybe an old sportworks. The whole front end is RC-10. Also has a Stealth transmission with Liesink motor plate and...

That poor Equalizer. :(
I searched for years to find on in good shape until Phin found me one. I just don't understand why some people did those mods back then. :?:
I thought about putting this in the re-re section because all the plastics are new, but the TPS and bottom-loaders with notched-pistons made me keep it here. :D
I'm planning to run this next season at my local dirt oval, and possibly the rest of...
I've been wanting to do a dirt oval tub car for awhile now, and finally have most of the puzzle to start. Have yet to do a black chassis build, so here it goes. The track where I plan to run this is open, run what you brung type of deal. I have a...
