As soon as I can find the charger to the digital camera I will post some pics of my car,the white parts were to far gone to try to save them,I think the person I bought it from may have been a smoker the parts had that nicotine look to them so I dyed them black.This car wont be an original shelf queen by any means but will be a nice dirt oval racer, to hopefully keep up with all the b4's and Evaders in the class.

Some nice cars in that link in your signature. did you paint them or supply decals ?

Love the stock car in the above picture; how wide are these and what's the wheelbase?
and who makes that body?

the car in that pic is a Nitro bomber owned by Wes Powell ,which were cars that were converted RC10GT's and basically anything you could make fit the rules then the class turned into 4wd touring cars with the same style bodies because it was alot easier for people to put one together,the class died out for awhile and now is basically any 2wd Buggy with stock suspension (no lowered shock towers or touring car shocks),13.5 brushless or 27t brushed and 7.4 lipo .the class has really taken off because its so affordable,theres everything from vintage RC10's, B3's, B4's ,Evaders,and older and newer Losi buggies running .My brother does the graphics ,his business actually got started 5 years ago when I started dirt oval racing and we noticed nobody had any good numbers or sponsor decals on the cars so he started hand drawing numbers and logos on the back of vinyl and cutting it out with an exacto knife and did so well he couldn't keep up with the demand ,then he bought a vinyl cutter and now runs his own business ,pretty cool it all got started from our interest in RC racing http://floridadirtoval.com/Gallery/albums.php?set_albumListPage=2 this link has alot of the cars any car thats #51 is mine there is some really nice cars in the galleries.

I wish dirt oval RC was popular in Australia.It would definetly be my choice of racing.I love my speedway.You guys are so lucky to have that many different forms of racing.The bomber class sounds great.

I'm pretty happy living in the Tampa Fl. area we have 3 dirt ovals, 4 offroad ,2 onroad ,and an asphalt oval within an hours drive from me,and those are just the tracks I know of.
