:thumbsup: WHO MAKES THE BEST BODY ,CAR AND TIRES FOR THESE BIG TRACKS , :wave: :wave: SOME HELP WOULD BE GREAT AND WHERE DO I BUY THEM AT THANKS FOR THE HELP

Opinions will vary on this question by A LOT!!! What area are you going to be racing in, what track? Best bet is to go and talk with the people that race at that facility and see what they are using. Either a slider chassis or a solid chassis will work good on a velodrome type track. Cap tires as far as I see there are 3 companies Murdock, TM tires and BSR.
Where to buy the products at are here on the right side of this screen. The sponsors of these forums. Such as Lefthander RC, Murdock RC, as well as others.
Read through some of the PRODUCT SUPPORT threads to get an idea as well of which companies offer the best customer support.

Just ask if you need any further information.

Slider 45 the best body is the body that was built just for Veldrome racing and that is our Windtunnel #2249 Taurus XHS velodrome. These will in in stock around Mid November due to a delay and short lexan supplies right now.

there really isnt a best car.. wghat you need to do is get whatever car you use as long as you can, and run the batteries in as far as yuou can...

From what i understand the older hyperdrive aldrennalin, and KGB assassin (same basic design as addrennalin) were designed for velo racing... long pod and overall long wheel base works well..

Go to www.southwesttour.com (http://www.southwesttour.com) message board. The racers there will answer you questions about racing at the Encino 'drome.

Tires: BSR EHW silver caps

Body: There are a couple of choices. The Mcallitster HS Dodge Charger and the XHS Velodrome Taurus are the only 2 bodies that are currently made. Parma will make the velodrome Monte Carlo if you order 25 at a time. A racer by the name of Frank Valentino did have some of the Parma bodies for sale at the last race. I don't know how to contact Frank but Joe Meyers may have his e-mail address.
My favorite body is the HS T-bird by Protoform, too bad they no longer make it.

Car: A standard Associated L30 works great at the 'drome. A DNA frontend will really tame the bumps, but a standard fornt end works if you put dampening lube on the king pins.

One other thing big pinions and small spurs.

See ya at the 'drome

thanks for the help what wing and where do i mount it i saw some car with the wing past the back of the body WHY??????

To stabilize the car.

As for the wing an Associated 5 inch off road wing works good with most of the kick-up removed. I usually mount my wing to the rear window with piano wire and wing buttons.

...btw, for those interested...the next UPCOMING Velodrome race will be Saturday DECEMBER 10th.

"The '05 WINTERFEST" will use an exciting 4 lap single car qualifying. ONE single heat race to line up the main events (Up to 20 car)
