6 guesses in already, can anybody threaten DynoMike and his Crystal ball?
Have until mid day Friday before we see what the actual time is.

Jeff has his guess in, now we will see how the leaders did on this one. Bill I have had quite a few of those chassis. I converted several of them into cars with both head and tail lights. I remember the car you ran in the past that won the stock class without traction magnets, it was a great runner. For my next event I am thinking of a pure stock class, no gearing, braid, and only stock traction magnets + no Viper, BSRT or Wizzard chassis. Let me know any thoughts on a class like that. Curious where the Jag DR1 chassis might fit into this discussion. |

I was wondering about the DR1 myself. At $22.50 it should be a fit for pure stock.
Just my humble opinion.

Curious where the Jag DR1 chassis might fit into this discussion. The problem with the DR1 is it's poly motor magnets for stock as per NTRA rules. Although they may be weak poly's, they are still poly's. We have allowed them to run early on right after their introduction just to see them compete. But we are tightening up on the Stock and Super Stock Inline Classes for 2021. |

I remember Bill's car too. I think it was a '69 Camaro...orange?? The car I'm thinking of was fast. |

My thoughts on stock are out of the box production cars such as Tyco, Tomy, AFX, Auto World and any other high volume brands with stock gearing etc.
DR1 would not be considered high volume, but those would be fine for super stock. No braid or any type of mods. Only change would be tires as that would be impossible to police.
I thought Bills winning stock car was an original G+ with no traction magnets and it did run amazingly well but I am not 100% sure of that.

10 members already in with guesses. Only 1 has not put a guess in. We will wait until tomorrow to see if a guess is rendered. Rendered? Yes I have been reading the dictionary again.  |

So, Super G+ & Mega G would fall under the Tomy/AFX umbrellas? Will post some pics of the old Z later for clarification on its originality. |

Super G+ would have to be allowed since it was a mass production chassis. I can guarantee many cars will
be competitive with those when stock gearing etc. is used. I have never had a stock Super G+ run as good as
the Shifter chassis I used for the game and I have had at least 50 of them at one time or another.
