I just put the final clear on dragster #2. Hopefully it will be dry enough in time. One more night of tuning and in the box they go. Cutting it too close....but I'll be in the show  |

Just a little over 1 day left for the guessing game. Make sure you all get your guess in for a chance to win the 2010 3 gear camaro.

Glad to have you guys. I'm getting very antsy and can't wait to see these cars fly down the track. This is my first proxy race of any sort. I'm just hoping my junk makes it down the track. If it flies? I'll be ecstatic. |

Race for last in the gate EC ? I just ruined my second try at my Skillet paint job. Good thing I got that dragster body from Fin.

My humble apologies Adam. Please kindly remove my dragster from the race. I ran out of time.
On the bright side I completed two T-jets.
They have been sent via United Parcel Silliness. ETA is Tuesday.

Jags package scheduled for delivery today. There is light at the end of the tunnel! Was beginning to think the light was a train! Couldn’t find one my chassis! Looked all over but no luck. Got fed up and did other things for a while. Then it occurred to me while walking the dog, I had put it in the ultrasonic cleaner, a night or 2 ago. And here I was wondering if maybe the dog ate it. Paint problems are running amok. Had to put one of mine in the strip tank yesterday. Repainted today. Will have to use a quick dry clear. |

Here’s a head scratcher for ya: Why is it that I struggle to get a stock class TJet style chassis to make passes under 1sec., but have some stock Xtractions that run in the .7s? A lot of us even have 4Gears that run under 1sec.
We are running pretty much the same arms, magnets, gears, brushes, wheels and tires, in both types of chassis. The only advantages (if you can call them that) the AFX style chassis has over the TJet is the cluster gear and a lower center of gravity.
The real irony of it is that when it comes to the 5.5 to 6ohm cars, some of my TJets outrun the AFXs.

That chassis is my nemesis for sure. |
