  1. Here is a update for you guys...

    I took a break over the holidays from building, I was focusing on the cab but I kinda messed up, but the good thing is it is fixable. I am not really feeling it lately, I got something like a writers block. I am not gonna say when they are gonna be done because I don't know. It is my first major scratch build so I will have some hick ups. I will get them done sometime haha. Sorry to let you guys down if I have with dates and all. I am really looking forward to the products being done my self so Ill try to get them done soon.

  2. Real nice car Bob even though you built it 6 years ago.

    Horsepower speaking of changing the name of the thread to oval track instead of NASCAR to "allow" modifieds (even tho they are NASCAR like you said) and stuff like that, well what about F1 cars and other circuit racing cars. In my opinion the under class tread is for street cars not race cars and the NASCAR tread should be just called race cars. Just like the drag car tread, that is not called top fuel cars. Just my opinion.

  3. I just found this while cruising around on the inter-webs today.

    looks like a Pete 362 with lots of wheels hauling a trailer with a rocket booster or an unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile.

    I also found an article from 2008 stating that a Minuteman III booster transport vehicle tipped over on the gravel access road, dumping the 75,000-pound rocket booster on the ground after the road gave out under the truck. No injuries were suffered but it did take $5.6 million to recover.

    I have been working a lot on the cab, trying to tweak things here and there. I sad before that it would be a month before every thing was done but as of now I only have the 389, 365 and 378/ 357 done and as I said I was tweaking the cab so they will be done before Christmas for sure (I hope :D)
