(inside joke)

Hi guys...
Jay - It was great to finally meet you. Thanks again for the dialed 12th ride. I'm not a big 12th scale racer as I usually center on touring car. Oddly enough, touring was what I struggled with at the Birds. Still really bummed about that.
Mart - Jason has 2 versions of the 12th scale car. Not sure of their indications though. The 1st version is the dampener disk version like the 12L4. The 2nd version is the dampener tube version like a CRC or Trinity car. I ran the dampener tubes on my car. I actually used IRS dampener tubes and tapped the holes in the top plate and cross brace for 4-40 ball ends.
As far as my 12th ride, I will take pics of it as soon as it gets here. A friend of mine took all of our equipment in a trailer.
Later,
Jason

actually, i think the original bmi 12 is just a conversion kit with both the disk and tube top plate.
I think the db12 is a full kit. not sure that it includes that tubes or disk

It was 4 in the C Main for Expert 19T.

Jason, it was great getting to meet you. My BMI 05' was awesome as usual. I gotta get one of those 12th scale cars, Jasons was too awesome in the main to not get one.
Cant wait to try some of the goodies that are on the table for the future.
Your stuff is top notch and I will continue to run BMI stuff as long as your in business.
