I made 4 modified and only 2 of those are gonna go. The other two just weren't fast enough to make the cut. Well 2 outta 4 ain't bad. I hate sending in basic stock, but until I get better at making fast mods, I'll have to settle.

Here's the one that kills me I'm not able to send in
Diecast Cars, Hot Wheels, Matchbox
It's called Low C GT, and for some unknown reason is now bottoming out on my track after the modification. When I took it apart, I found that the axle was not fastened, but came out freely. I'm certain I put the thing back together properly, so I'm baffled as to why it's now dragging.

How are you affixing the axles? If your using JB Weld and it's a plastic base it could just be coming un-stuck from the base.

Nice fleet WorpeX. I'm thinking that the long wheelbased Retroactive should do well, especially with those FTEs.
