Results: Truck-O-Rama II mail-in
I was going to drop the 1945 7up truck onto an FTE way 2 fast base...
Oops... 73.8 grams in a 60 gram class.... bummed, then it hit me,
The venerable RAABSTER way 2 fast "plastic" base / front bumper...
57.9 grams, before glueing... front bumper may have to go...
The RAABSTER way 2 fast base 1/2 of the rear headers removed...
Notice it is translucent.
- That truck looks mean...and fast...can't wait to see that run — redlinederby

Can we call it a van?
- I'd have to say No to that. Alligators do not qualify as a truck :) Or is that a crocodile? — redlinederby
- it's "Rock 'o Mile" — CrzyTrkrDude
About a month out from entry deadline on Truck-O-Rama II. I know there's a lot going on in June as well but try to grab a truck and get it modded. I'm looking forward to seeing all the trucks roll.
And I know it's early for this race but Smitty has a big jump on y'all, and that red Hay 2 Fast truck looks like a barn burner...
I don't want Smitty to have all the fun...
It's been a while since I've built one of these...
I need to lose the rear pipes and get some weight in it...maybe fte's, we'll see how these 5-spokes roll
- I don't know, that window tint is illegal in NJ! Looking good, TE! — 72_Chevy_C10
- You sure are getting good at making cars fast with non-FTE axles! I actually built one of my Bar Muscle entries without FTEs. — KandORacing
- Yup, kinda on a mission, need to prove something to myself — Traction-Event
- also i need to clean up that hood casting line... — Traction-Event
- I've discovered that FTEs aren't necessary to make a fast car. A week ago I was pretty dissapointed in my FTE Firebird for Bare Muscle.... — KandORacing
- .. but then I tried some different wheels (non FTE) and it is actually pretty fast, I was quite surprised. — KandORacing
Just a clarification but are pick-up trucks and/or SUV's included in this race?
Yes, both pick-up and SUV qualify. Basically as long as it's not a sedan, coupe, hot rod or fantasy car then it's more or less okay to enter. Station wagons are good, and vans too.
Let's see if I can get one of these up to speed:

Made a large re-useable blister card to go home with the eliminator...the 2015 Truck o Rama II "winner" gets a bigger blister in case the winner won't fit in a medium...
..... go redline derby racers go !
