pretty casting... but... it is a rubber, rubs the track's sidewalls...
if it were mine ....
maybe find a same [close] wheel base, wide tracked base, cut the not needed grill / bumper and tail lights/ bumper off, [bisecting the rivet hole]... install the front FTEs under the base, reg. installation FTEs out back, hog out the rear wheel wells, cut off the caddy's grill/ front bumper and tail light/ rear bumper,[bisecting the rivet hole], later glue them on the new body/base combination... if it were mine .

this is what I use, note the small #s to the right of - (... they determine what cars race when...Diecast Cars, Hot Wheels, Matchbox
loser's bracket [L before the #] tells where to place the cars as they lose...the [2] 90* passes at the top right are to determine 5/6 and 7/8 if needed...

That doesn't look too difficult...............

This is a late enough start date that I should be able to get a truck ready. I will be gone the first several days to PA for a memorial service, but will still have time to build one. Not sure if I can do a host or not, will wait until I return from PA and see what kind of schedule I have from there. I will see if Red Star Racing wants to give this a try or not, seems he is getting more interested in doing some mail-ins since his first in the born series, he is learning a lesson on sending in stock ones.

Cool idea Stroller.

I am rethinking having more than just one race. November 10th puts the race into holiday territory and any races after that will only make it more so. So I think my one race will be it. Ok with you guys? Let me know.....

you can race 'em more than once... add and or subtract track lenth... add and or subtract pitch...add reverse angle to the runout...

Okay that sounds interesting I do have a 12foot track and now a 24foot track. I think this is the way I will go, 2 races at my track. All on one day. Video on the large track maybe....will have to test.........
