If this is a violation or not in the spirit of this thread, let me know and I will delete the post. Just thought I could add to the VTA and make it a bit easier to get people rule compliant.

Here is an example of some recent numbers I did up. All in vinyl so ther are just peel and stick.

My toes are fine and the bullets look great.

You know that is right! Helps me pay for race fees.

Haven't had to fix anything yet on the car, the Xray Chasis I am using seems to be tough as nails! Still on the same body I started the VTA with. It has lasted me about 9 months of Friday night racing and our track sees a lot of lexan carnage. Helps to be out in the lead too! Here is one of the most recent vids I have of our humble little track. The VTA had grown into our largest class at times approaching 12 or more cars. Most of the cars have numbers done by me.

+ YouTube Video

Here is a recent VTA body I finished for a local racer using my custom decals and VTA decals he purchased from another member here. Okay, done selling and self-promoting. Back to the discussion!

Hey guys, new here to VTA. We're trying to get a VTA class going out here in SoCal at WCRC. Just wanted to share with you guys a pic of my '69 Camaro Z/28. I've always loved the looks of the 60's and 70's Gulf Racing team cars, so this is my Gulf Racing inspired car. This pic was taken before I put on the rear Spoiler and I still need to cut down the rear body posts Hope ya guys like it!

Associated TC4 "Club Racer"
Novak Edge esc/25.5 spec motor combo
Savox 0254mg servo
a few FT upgrades
