The rest of The Legion of Speed still has to choose their cars.
Speed Force going all Mustangs
Lady of Speed is going all Z cars...she is trying to choose two.
- FYI - the Matchbox Dodge Viper SRT qualifies for this race but is too wide to fit standard orange track. — Mopar_Mafia
Lady of Speed couldn't break away from the black BMW
Now this is drifting that I can understand...

I have a selection in mind just need 2 add the weight but everything i try im over the weight limit. Is it ok if im over by 1 gram, probably not even 1 gram? Its a Dodge Charger drift it weighs 39 gram without the weight. The weight is 17 pop tabs weighing 6 grams. Should i tape them on, string them together them tape them on, or do you have any suggestions. P.S. what is your address and how much do i send for return and how much do i send for the pot.
- Just send shipping $$$ to ship back. — LeagueofSpeed
- If you're not going to modify the car...just keep it at 39g — LeagueofSpeed
- I would not tape 17 pop tabs to any car...just race it stock — LeagueofSpeed
Yes, 1g over is fine and the car doesn't have to be 45g...the 45g is mainly for us racers who are drilling the rivets and modifying the car...a stock car entry can be 39g and doesn't have to be brought up in weight. If you are not modifying the car, then I would leave it as is. My daughter Speed Force is racing a stock FTE Mustang at 35g.
Leagueofspeed i still need your address
Sorry 1 more thing, put a camera by the curves so we can see some action up close
Ok, so I went a little overboard in preparation for this race. I've got the 4 above cars from the beater box and I acquired six new in the blister that qualify for this event. I got excited that I had some cool stuff to start working on. So I sorted them, weighed them, tested them and took notes on my findings. Every single one of these cars is a slug, I mean slow..... Slower than molasses on wet November morning up hill in Maine slow.
So tomorrow I'll hit the pegs again and dive in the bins.
