Put me down for two cars.  And I can race them Sept. 14th so they won't rack up to much mileage from Maine to Massachusetts.


  • meet you at the exit 75 turnpike park and ride and hand off the cars if that works for you on your way home from U MAINE... — model40fan

I still need to dig them out but I'll be sending in a Rice Krispies truck and Model A. I'm not modding them but both are pretty weighty so I hope that helps like logic would say it should.

  • Well it will be interesting to see what they do, my mods are usually crappy enough that you might beat them with those! — KandORacing
  • the Crispy Critter weighs in at 65. 6 grams — model40fan
  • Just make sure the Rice Krispies truck clears a dragtracks finish line's height.... — KandORacing
  • Good call, I'll measure it once I have it. — redlinederby
  • Ya know I'm following RLD's lead and not using any parts that aren't MB — Stroller
  • I am modding mine though. — Stroller
  • memory tells me that a SOOO FAST's base fits nicely under the Crispy... — model40fan
  • Come on Stroller, it isn't as fun that way! — KandORacing
  • K&O to each their own...build on Stroller build on...I am also trying make MB axles work... — Traction-Event
  • You may use whatever axles you wish though, remember. — KandORacing
  • Found a couple English cars I'm sending......and I will be trying to win.....lol — Stroller

So Smitty, going by one of your earlier "Thumbs Up" posts, it sounds like Hole Shot might be entering. Does he want his team name on the entry list?


  • i told him about it... i'll cover him with a couple stockers.. — model40fan

If DadV wants to bring the MBXs to the LJLRC, we could probably take them from there.

I'm fixin' to use a VW Bus along with the Plum Crazy Challenger I'm gonna redo. 


  • As Smitty would say, "Go Stawka Go!" — KandORacing
  • the vw bus has a strap of steel front to rear, i pinches both axles down. easy axle swap... — model40fan
  • My entries are the older ones with that type of suspension also — KandORacing
  • I have a bunch of oldies, mine from the 60's early 70's. May still sacrafice one for the cause. They are well plaied with anyway. — Nightstalker
  • "Played" — Nightstalker
  • don't forget the 1.30" guage, '56 pick up just makes it... — model40fan
