Dale & Eric,

How about a Challenger or even a Charger? You guys obviously have your foot in the door with Dodge already.

I feel a bit bad about having gone a bit off-topic with this WGT stuff, so here's the McAllister Riley Daytona Prototype I just finished fitting:

Agreed. It is a classic.

The exact opposite is always true of Monster Energy paint jobs, they always look terrible.

Looks good! What chassis is it mounted on?

A Mclaren P1 GTR would be Sa-Weet as well! Might be tough to fit it on a current TC unless its an Awesomatix... WGT, no problems!

This is on an Xray T4 2015. As there is no USGT in the UK, it's built to the slowest BRCA touring car class (except for the shell!), weighting 1350g, on Sorex 28 slicks, and running a 17.5T motor with blinky ESC.

I'm finding the clearance above the front tires to be a bit tight, so I probably will keep this one as a "shelf" body, but I'm thinking of running either a Corvette Daytona Prototype or a PFM-10 for racing at my club (they're pretty relaxed about body shell rules).

Thanks! It's been done a lot in some classes here (like GT12), but I was having an adverse reaction to the typical touring car paint jobs, so I swung the opposite way.

Protoform should consider making bodies of these fine high-technology "hybrid" racing machines:

Isn't this just a short course truck?

Hi everyone,

What 24mm wheels are popular to use? Are the Ride six spoke or mesh wheels that Gravity provide strong and/or light?

I'm considering ordering the Speedmind wheels as they come in an 8 pack and are really inexpensive, but I'm not sure about durability. I'm also considering Tamiya wheels as I've had good luck with them in the past.

I'm not a terrible drive but I'd like to have a wheel that can take a board hit or two without cracking

Have you seen the upside-down Camaro that runs in the LeMons series?
