Awarded to the highest placing Camaro, Mustang and Mopar...after the winners. In other words, if a Camaro wins one of the classes, the 5-Deep set would go to the next highest Camaro (the winner will already be getting all the cars in the class).
Just stirring the pot a little :)
- What would an Olds442 get for winning? ;) — JDC442
- It would get the pride in knowing it was the very best Olsmobile in the field :) — 72_Chevy_C10
- Gonna be a Pontiac Trans Am running too. — Nightstalker
I use the spray on stripper from Walmart it works pretty good, I put the castings on a paper plate and spray them let it sit for about 20mins, rinse them in a bucket of water and scrub with a wire brush, then run it under the sink just to make sure everything is off the casting, roll up the paper plate and toss it in the dumpster.
You can check out this older post about painting your cars. Technique still works great.
Basically same as Eastbound but I have a can of stripper rather than the spray variety.
I'm just bumping this one to the top! It promises to be a GREAT RACE!
I'm planning on changing the location of my track this weekend, so that I can improve my videos (and reclaim my workbench!). I'll be posting more info on the revised track once I am a little further along!
Oh, and btw, I hope everyone is is starting to work on there cars...you'll want to bring your 'A Game' to this one!
- A Game? I strive for mediocraty and keep plenty of D Game on hand!! LOL — CrzyTrkrDude
- yea... that target chafes my skin... — fordman
- Yeah, Smitty, you are defending lightweight Champ! — 72_Chevy_C10
I figure it's about time to start stirring the pot on this one...

My AMX team didn't do very well last year, so they will be getting a little extra attention this year!
Looked at the Wikipedia entry you linked to. So, an El Camino counts if it is a Super Sport?
- El Caminos have been run the first Bare Muscle race...yup, they count as Muscle Cars — 72_Chevy_C10
- I'm in, then. — Finkle_and_Sons
- Cool...let me know what color you will paint the roof...the taken colors are at the top of this thread — 72_Chevy_C10
- Black and yellow? — Finkle_and_Sons
- Okee-dokee...black and yellow it is! — 72_Chevy_C10
I'm most interested in aesthetics so that makes this race a stretch for me, but I am up for the challenge. My question is, how complicated can the roof paint job be? Can it be any design provided that the only paint used is the color(s) of each driver? Can bare metal be incorporated in the roof design as long as the designated color(s) is included as well?
- There's no real requirements for the roofs, Andy...it is really just to make the cars identifiable...so, have at it! — 72_Chevy_C10
I'm just bumping this to the top and letting everyone know that we are 7 weeks out from the start of Bare Muscle 3! This race has been a great race both times it has run before and promises to be even bigger this year!
Those 7 weeks will go by really fast so start stripping those Muscle Cars, Guys!
I have some cool announcements coming up...really cool racing will be happening!
Charcoal gray. I'm in
