All-Star Nascar 6 Lane Showdown mail-in
Stroller, I hope everything went well if you already had your surgery, if not yet then I hope it goes well when you do.
When this race takes place may I have numbers #16 and #17, please?
POSTED JAN 1ST '15... STROLLER POSTPONED THIS SERIES DUE TO HIS EYE SURGURY...
Psst...for anyone building a car for this...from about 1994 to 1996, Racing Champions made all-metal cars, with blacked-out windows and no interiors, and with wheel wells large enough to accommodate large FTEs. Just a heads-up...
Hmmmmmm.... Maybe I should rip into that #43 65 Barracuda I've been holding for 15 years now..... Nahhhhhhhhh, not until I can make a mold and cast a few dozen......it is my only one. And only 1 of 9, 999 were made. But still... Hmmmmmmmm.....
- you know we have a bunch that would buy one, modd it and enter it in a '65 cuda only race... go CTD go ! — model40fan
- How different are the '68 Cuda tgat Hot Wheels is currently making...it's a pretty nice looking casting — 72_Chevy_C10
- I like the idea of an all Barracuda/Challenger race — CrzyTrkrDude
- they've almost got all the model's/years covered — CrzyTrkrDude

1964-65 Barracuda. Based off a '63-64-65 Plymouth Valiant. Largest rear window ever produced. Too many complaints from consumers about sunburned necks, so they came out with the 'Cuda design you spoke of. Which I agree, is a great casting. If I enter this race, I'd use the '68, but, I'll have to hog out the rear wells. It's nice, but wayyyy too narrow back there. ( same with the '65 in Raceing Champions casting.)

- note the offsetting of the air cleaners — model40fan
- What would be great, is if I can find a ratty old King Cuda, and bondo up a hood on it. lol — CrzyTrkrDude
- i found a custom barracuda casting, interior, tailpan broken off, no glass... yours if it helps... — model40fan
- I like the look of the Custom Cuda casting. The rear wells just look good to me. SOLD! THANKS — CrzyTrkrDude
I'm afraid I will have to postpone this tournament until I know what is going to happen with my eye. There is another operation coming up and I don't know at this point what condition I will be in when done. So I am postponing indefinitely. If someone else wants to run this please do it....Use any style you want. I am waiting till my eye is all well.........Stroller and Happy New Year all you gearheads.....
