Wow that's really cool

Nice job indexing all those holes! I've done a lot of projects at work involving speed holes and I know how tedious it can be


What's you plan for finish on the chassis?

Thanks

Yes, I cut all the fiberglass parts

Here's some photos of the car and the race. http://i758.photobucket.com/albums/xx221/dhoff71/Mobile%20Uploads/20150806_201548.jpg http://i758.photobucket.com/albums/xx221/dhoff71/Mobile%20Uploads/20150815_112744.jpg http://i758.photobucket.com/albums/xx221/dhoff71/Mobile%20Uploads/20150828_130234.jp...

Headers look awesome, I want to do something similar for my oval car

Looks nice, amazing how well that works. Are you going to tint the 3d parts in coffee like others have done?

Looks like you had just enough room, nice job.

clean, I like the paint job

What treatment did you use on the plastics?

Thanks

Soaked them in simple green/water in the sun.

Thanks for all the positive feedback!

I machined the hex off the shock bodies on a lathe and the servo was taped (and zip tied) in when I got the truck. I thought the block mounts made it look better as a roller.

I sold the truck a couple weeks ago and the new owner is very happy with it.

Got a driver

Look into 3M 2mil transfer tape, slot car guys use it for wing bodies.

Cool, that looks great!

Got the truck put back together.

Truck is going back together with new aluminum hardware and early Ti turnbuckles with rere white ball ups.
