That catchbox looks different from the one in the video--or is that after it recieved more padding?

ditto on the CRASHBOX worpex, but calling out the preacher might get you struck by lightning... on a sunny day !

Good point--I'd hate to be struck by God's Lightning! His Johnny wrote Scriptural Texts (and he was pretty good at it, too).

It's the same, but without the rolled up rags along the sides

Oh, okay. It looks safer the way you have it now--partly because the track goes all the way to the padding on the back (the cars are more likely to just bounce straight back along the track; and when they don't, they'll land on the side padding--something softer).

I'm going to do a Mod to the Box, to keep the cars from doing any bouncing and flipping when they come to a stop. Keep watching.

O.k. here is a mod that will help with the cars flipping when entering the stop box. I cut 2 pieces of foam and wedged them in at an angle so the cars will stop without flipping around when coming to a complete stop from Mach speed.

Great job! That should definitely help to maintain your cars' speed!

I've just noticed doesn't the Preacher look a lot like "The Stig" from "Top Gear"?.......

His avatar? I thought he looked kinda like the drivers from Gran Tourismo 5.

Could be, he races just as fast as the stig!! Perhaps a distant cousin?

Been a while since we've discussed this topic...

So the saying is, "No guts, no glory," right? Okay...

Every month now at the RIHWC, they have a "Hammer Race." Perhaps most of you haven't heard of this. It's a race where, if you win and move on to the next round, you get to take a hammer--literally--to the car you beat. Fifty feet. Stocks only. Trophy for the winner. BEAT THAT FOR "GUTS"!!!!

Anyway, I don't know if they'd let me bring somebody else's cars if they were mailed in, but if you dare to find out, let me know. And by the way--while I may or may not dare to enter a BWF Camaro if mods became involved, something like this would be an interesting idea for an RLD event.
