Bob Krueger MJS34 01-12-2009, 10:02 PM we used .060 for the wings on this was afraid of the .030 or .040 we used on our 10th scale all these years.. okracer 01-15-2009, 02:00 AM did i hear ya right are yall raceing 1/4 scales in muskogee oklathanks Dave you will be seeing it this spring I hope to make a few of your races before the National....:thumbsup: MSadler...yes it is a wcm and thanks on the wing yea it is up in the air like it should be for a dirt car but legal is a question mark...LOL...it is 15 by 15 which is exactly 1/4 scale to a 25 sqft wing like the WOO, All Stars, ASCS, PA Posse and any other 410 or large 360 injected dirt sprint association runs and that will be are limit in Muskogee were we are going to be running.

Cooty Creek Raceway... we had a couple play days late last year and we hope to start up in March or April depending on the weather. As of right now there are 4 sprints ready to go and a few others on the fence waiting to see how it goes and there are 5 or 6 Bajas going to run as modifieds I think Track acts like it will be fun to run on with lots of room to race without killing each other....LOL okracer 01-15-2009, 09:16 AM well i have a 86 wcm sprinter just sitting and acheing to race i guess ill have to pull it out of the garage now im getting excited so help me out what kinda tires do i need for dirt raceing FMurry8995 01-15-2009, 11:01 AM well i have a 86 wcm sprinter just sitting and acheing to race i guess ill have to pull it out of the garage now im getting excited so help me out what kinda tires do i need for dirt raceing You will need either Bishops street treads or his ribbed front and blocked pattern for the rear. There are some for sale in the swap and sell area of hobby talk under large scale. As your sprinter is an 86 era car you most likely still have six bolt wheels. You will either have to have Todd Bishop make you a set of dirt tires with six bolt wheels or up grade to four bolt hubs. You could also have the wheels drilled for six bolt pattern if your interested in the wheels on hobby talk. They belong to a friend of mine. He never used them and has a good price on them. I also have four bolt hubs if you want them. hobbyten 01-15-2009, 11:20 AM we used .060 for the wings on this was afraid of the .030 or .040 we used on our 10th scale all these years.. i have built one out of .040 and it was way to weak had to bracing to be able to use it. the .040 worked alright for the front wing but not the top. MJS34 01-15-2009, 11:33 PM the only thing we have run so far is checker board front and rear...we like the rear but seems like to much front bite so next time going to try streat tread on front...looks like very little stagger 1/4 or less will know more after we get some more laps in with more cars... for anybody in the OK area check in at.... okrcracers.net... and look under dirt oval if there is a play day planned it would be posted there... look for post about 1/4 scale from Double D or MJS or racerray11 hope you can join us okracer 01-27-2009, 09:03 PM hey fred how much are the four bolt hubs FMurry8995 01-27-2009, 10:27 PM hey fred how much are the four bolt hubs New WCM rear four bolt hubs are $24.00 each. Front hubs older style with 1/4 inch bearings $25.00 plus bearings at $5.00 each, Requires 4 bearings. Rear hubs including bolts $48.00 Front hubs with bearings and bolts $70.00.Total $118.00 minus 10% = $106 plus $4.00 shipping equals $110.00 shipped. WCM has changed front hub design twice since that car was built. The newest style will not work with your axle assembly therefore you would have to update your front axle to use them. You do not need the newest style for dirt racing as camber adjustment is not nearly as critical in dirt racing as it is ni pavement racing.:wave: Thanks, Fred vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
