Actually, Greg, we'll be changing the last date to March 23(CRL fun run), because I'll be in Minnesota also. Remember it's best 3 out of 4. Points awards will be handed out March 30.

J-rod how about Sedan Rubber 5C stock 540 with a 17t 48p pinion with headlights and tail lights with an El Camino body. Plus, you can only race with one eye open and with a hand tied around your back.:D

Nick - Semi Truck bodies. Did you find a price yet? If they are too expensive, we'll probably want to order some Silverados.

Hey bob, so we still going.... Cool... Wanna take the rental car? It is a 4-door with a lot of trunk space. Mileage isn't a concern.

I just want to try to repay you for all of the chauffeuring(sp?) that you have done for me in the past year.

Hmmm. Semi bodies are pretty expensive. For this special CRL fun race, which would you think is cooler: Nastrucks or Mini Coopers?

IHAUL
02-03-2003, 09:50 AM
What is the special race going to be and who ?
trucks are close to touring but mini's might
be fun to watch.

We do a Carpet Racing League season ender. This year's will be at the Hobby Hub in Lansing, MI on March 23rd. This race day will be like a normal Lansing club race (like $10 entry fee) and the CRL will just crash the party to pass out prizes and CRL season points trophies.

We want to do some fun things that day. One special class will be an invitational that takes the top 10 touring car finishers from the CRL season and makes them run a special body. We were hoping for Semi truck bodies, but I am buying these from my own pocket and they are just too expensive.

All other classes will run like a normal club race unless people want to do some other special stuff. Maybe double A-mains that day? I do have 20 Paradox, closed endbell motors that could be used for a class. Maybe hand out the motor right before each race at the tech table. I'm looking for suggestions.

Hey Keith, I ordered the Yokomo semi bodies.

I thought those were goingto be too expensive....?????:lol:

NTwigs
02-03-2003, 02:56 PM
They are only $5 more than the Silverado bodies.

Greg Anthony
02-03-2003, 03:22 PM

Well Nick has 8 out ot 10 done and with Aarons pink we only need one more.

Motor City Hamilton
02-04-2003, 11:40 AM
I have dibs on the first 10, because I asked Nick to order them. The trucks will show up at the track painted, decaled and cut out. The top 10 will need to drill body holes and set the ride height.

If anyone has some extra time and would like to volunteer to paint a few, that would be cool. Oh... I agree that Aaron should have to drive a pink one.

Rich Chang
02-04-2003, 11:46 AM
If they are going to be one solid color then I can help paint.

We could get some of the local "Paint Pros" to paint them and use it as a contest.

Motor City Hamilton
02-04-2003, 11:53 AM
I could paint one solid color. Heck, even Aaron can paint one solid color. I pulled some photos from the Euro Truck website and they are all pretty simple two color designs. I want to replicate that feel, but won't be able to exactly duplicate (where would I find all the decals). I do want to visit some hobby stores and buy their old - noone ever gonna buy - decals. I have seen some obscure 80's F1 decals that might work.

Hey... If someone is willing to donate their time to do top notch paint jobs... I'm all for that. I can buy the paint. I'm just not an airbrush pro.

Hey, it's not my body, so I'll run whatever you give me. Just don't go crying to mama when you get beat by a pink truck. :p

I wouldn't mind doing one or two if I can get them in time. It would only take me about a week to do two of them and get them cut out and stickered up. But I would like to get them as soon as possible.
