Those retro class races look like a total blast. I wish there was something like that around here.

how far is barnstormers in chester ny from you? they run the retro renegades class as well as pro mods.
next event march 26th.
it's about 2hrs from me, i'm going.

I drove up there once to race 4wd buggy years ago when I lived in Jersey City. I wanna say it was in the hour and a half range, but I could be wrong. Now I'm in Brooklyn so it's probably a little further. The thing is, I no longer have a car so I'd have to rent a Zip Car. I would love to go.

you could take the metro north to brewster and i could pick you up on my way through.

even if you can't make this months race, they do it once a month. i go right by that station on my way.
just a thought.

That would be cool. Now I need to get another vintage Clod racer. What day do they normally do the race on, Saturdays?

Dam, I was just in Hawaii. I could have paid these guys a visit.

yup, every rcmtc event i've been to has been on a saturday.

turns out i can't make this weekend anyway, too much stuff going on at home.

I was checking out my local Craigslist when I came across someone selling a Clodzilla 4 for $200. He describe the truck as being a roller with stock motors, sidewinder esc and aluminum rims. I have about 10 Clods and normally would not have jumped at this until I saw a picture of the truck's rims. He had old school Tenacarft rims on them. I immediately emailed the seller, but he responded to me saying that a guy had said he would buy the truck and that he wanted to give him first shot at the truck. I then thought it over for about 5 minutes and then offered him $250, which he gladly said yes.

Upon receiving the truck I am happy that I offered the extra $50. The rims are in awesome shape and I have enough extra electrical to get the truck up and running to get my $250. Its not everyday that you see Tenacraft rims for sale.

Very nice find. Loving those tecnas...

Great find ! Those are some trick looking rims !
