clovis Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Starting this kit soon. Look forward to watching your build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaughingIndian Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) That's just right. The stance. The tires and wheels ... Great! Put a seat in, engine, and maybe some steerage, and you're done. Even the unpainted body looks great ... and I don't like white cars. One question: My knowledge of suspensions is pedestrian ... why did you use a panhard with leaf springs and not a traction bar? Edit: I just reread your words "road race" and got the clue. Edited May 17, 2015 by LaughingIndian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brudda Posted May 17, 2015 Author Share Posted May 17, 2015 Yes sir Mr. Mike, You need both for a road racer. Although some guys like my friend Mick have used a torque arm instead of traction bars. Here is His car that we set up. I have had several 1:1 camaros that I used to race in scca. This car really hooks up. A LS motor with 500 hp. Sorry for the sideways pics.

swede70 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Very neat wheels and tires - tricky I understand in 1:12th given not too many options exist. Looking very nice... Mike K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoatGuy Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Looks good so far. I hope you're putting an engine like that in your build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Where are the wheels from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brudda Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 Mr. Fred McKee, the wheels are from the tamiya lola t-70 kit and the tires are from icon. The tires are made for the Trumpeter GT40. These are resin and need to be painted. The tires look like the tires of the era. The right tread and the right girth. Thank you guys for the great comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
