I was just staying tuned thinking you were going to post pictures and more info. Sounds quick to me but I also don't have anything to compare to it. I don't think you pissed anybody off here unless you upset yourself?

yeah he said there was some shake at the start of the run and was about to lift, hopefully he can back it up today. What are you using for traction magnets? Edit: His 3.78 in earlier qualifying is his back up

Hi Sam. Any chance you would be willing to cast this GN?? It'a from Jada Toys, part of the Dub City. Regardless of that, this car would look smoking hot with a deck spoiler, wheelie bars and a chute or two. The wheels are narrowed front and rear. This was my first attemp to do anything like this. It lines up perfectly with a 4 gear in the center front axle hole. You let me know. I would want a few of them!!! Attachments:

looks sweet even without any mods For a comparison, I recently got hold of my first AW 4 Gears (J.Force and Summit), at about 25V, stock parts and tyres and 6317mm (20.725') scale 1/4 I can run 1.2's. Slip ons stretched over std rims knocks off another 1/10 or so.

No tweaking I think thats good for the AW 4 gear. I believe Sam ran a few and got decent results too.

I like those bodies Joe. Unfortunately I can't do the work for you, can't even get my own projects done If you find somebody to do them, I'd be interested in buying one.
