Re: Dirt Oval tub car
Have a few more items to add to the pile. I haven't heard back from the guy who was supposed to be doing the decals. He went dark, pun intended.
Anyone here brave enough or know of someone brave enough to try and hand draw some of these logos to be scanned?

Re: Dirt Oval tub car
Yep, CW for this runner build. I have the mid-engine body in the works too. If it works out, I'll probably do up a couple of those and maybe make one into a runner body.

Re: Dirt Oval tub car
depending on when you are ready to build the sheet body, I might be able to help you out with it- just depends on the timing....

Re: Dirt Oval tub car
I agree! Looks a bit retro.
Sounds good Reg. Gonna use the CW body to break in the guard rails.
A few more items arrived today as well. Damn blue on my wheel spacers! Gonna do up some short rear side dams with the lexan sheets.

Re: Dirt Oval tub car
Looking to also build a couple of bodies from scratch as suggested for this. What thickness and where is the best place to buy the lexan?

Re: Dirt Oval tub car
I always used .030 lexan to make my edm bodies, mainly for durability. Most use .020.

Re: Dirt Oval tub car
Thanks scr8p. Got some ordered.
Was originally thinking of using a 8.5 brushless for this, but my gut says go with the 6.5-7.5T... Don't know how the old Stealth would hold up.
