Haven't seen that paint scheme on a 510, but I'm diggin' it with the FTE wheels. Looks like it might be fast.

It came a light blue with black hood and yellow graphics on the hood and doors. With the FTE's it's as quick as a FTE Triumph. I just wanted to mod instead of running a stocker. I still have a few more tricks to make it faster. I might have a friend who reloads ammo and has the ability to melt lead to fill little nooks and crannies.

the gasses from melting lead are more hazardous than just handling it.

That's why it's good to have a friend with a proper set up.

He reloads ammo and makes his own fishing jigs so he knows what he's doing. I told him I needed weight in my hot wheels so he told me to bring em over and he would fix em up.

These are the cars the "Stroller Racing" is entering in the "Factory Wars Tournament".

Diecast Cars, Hot Wheels, Matchbox

Left to right: C6 Corvette, (General Motors), Preying Mantis, (Other, Fantasy), Subaru Impreza, (Foriegn), 09 Ford Focus, (Ford), Custom 77 Dodge Van, (Chrysler).

They all are stock except for Subaru which I messed with, new wheels and some added weight. This is a car I found buried in my backyard with my metal detector. It was a mess, I had to save. Like saving an old dog I guess.

Not sure if these cars are any good since it's my first race and I'm not sure what the heck I'm doing. My one hope is that my cars do not dud out half-way down the track......

If that Preying Menace is an FTE, then it's probably very fast.

The Preying mantis is indeed FTE and fast it is.

Yes, there is a change in the Chrysler camp. In the process of modding the Funny, It crapped out. From the fastest in the stable to the Floppin' Turd. Sometimes it is better to leave good enough alone.

Stickers--that's how the FOTFs usually identify themselves! Except in Middleweight II.
Hey, are you able to enter a second Chevy in the 'Other' category?

Great looking cars Smitty.
FOTF, the way I took the rules were that "other" also included any of the above. McJiggles would need to verify if I'm taking that right or not.
