im almost 100% sure it a trinity street spec

http://www.tamiyaclub.com/picturefra...08153734_1.jpg


it was designed to be an affordable oval class

they ran a spec 21 turn non adjustable motors and a spec battery pack (1300 in the early years, then they went to a 1600) and the tires only came in blue and green coumpunds and had a grey band on them

Pretty sure your right on that being the Trinity Street Spec...except it wasn't designed as an oval car...just a generic pan car that could be used on either road courses or ovals.
