That pretty much sums up all the shows on TruTv

I know and agree, but there are few things to remember about the soon to be Speed no more, one, its studios and production offices are located in the heart of NASCAR country, two, NASCAR money is what pays a good chunk of the bills. I too would love to see more of the series that you mention, but the sad truth is there is very little advert money for those series

I remember only building one the kits when I was younger , wouldnt mind taking another crack at one, those look to be those XS tunning wheels

I meet Rutledge and had a photo taken with him, he was very nice in person, I loved Wind Tunnel, but not the retooled version, its ######, no more weekly emails, no weekly questions, it very vanilla now, and have the time Dave isnt even hosting, it was a much watch, now its a well lets see who is hosting this week . Oh well, I dont mind the filler stuff, but its ok for ESPN to have hour after hour of NFL or MLB or NBA filler shows ,but not for NASCAR

Drew, thank you , but that was not my goal, I was just having some fun , did you build yours before Galaxie trailers came about ?, there are still things not great about mine, I just hide it in the photos , if you find the link I posted a few pages back, there are a lot more pics of it , I have done three so far, and that is the best one so far

Yes we need the NASCAR coverage, maybe not as much, but in reality we get an hour Mon-Thurs, and the on track coverage, but I am NASCAR fan, been on both sides, so yes I am 100% bias As for the ALMS /Grand AM series which is going to be one series in the next few years, I would hope News Corp will still carry the rights to that series

Thanks guys , Tim, good luck with yours, are going to do a WIP thread for it? Steve, if you want the wheels PM me

There are some people on this forum that expect us to talk models 100% of the time, heck, at my club meetings we dont about models half the time

NBC out bid Newscrop on the rights, but with the rebranding of Speed to Fox Sports 1 sometime in the near future (2013), not sure how motorsports is going to fit on the new all sports network right now And not sure what provider you have, but on DirecTv, NBC Sports was moved down the channel list , it now in the low 200's , close to E$PN

Dan, least you had some time to look at the 1:1 cars at the show

Oh dont roll your eyes at me :lol:

Drew, I see your trailer, and I will raise you one , here is my 99% scratchbuilt trailer, yes, I know I posted a link to it earlier, but a pic is better then a link

Talk about timing, I post my LED build project, and then this thread appears a few days later

Tim, it will come by USPS, unless you chose FedEX, no didnt get any extras lol I have posted this one in under glass

Here is Tamiya Nissan Skyline GTR, pretty much an OOB, I used Fujimi Wantabe wheels instead of the stock wheels, painted MM GTS Blue lacquer

Penske had the only Dodge engine program, they were the only ones building the engines for Dodge in the Cup series, and maybe the Nwide series. I am just guessing here, but I am pretty sure RPM could of got engines from Penske

Yes, here they are out of the box and going to use these for the front brakes

This is starting to turn into who has the biggest hot dog

Nick, the size I am using are the 1.8MM , I am also going to be using this set when it gets to me http://www.modeltrainsoftware.com/wigwagcircuit.html

I have wheels, they arrived today

I there was not a WIP thread, I would not believe it was scratch built

I thought you were a JoLo and Khane fan

I will add one more example of scratch built, I will share my 99% scratch built trailer I built it using evergreen stock, the only parts from a kit are the tires/wheels, and P/E door handles http://s1000.photobucket.com/albums/af125/nascar49/Featherlite%20Trailer/

I dont know if BMF could work, someone might come along that would know, I purchased everything here http://www.modeltrainsoftware.com/

You are a artist, I really dont know what else to say, but wow
