Tim -

Those look to be some pretty sweet additions!  Any chance of posting some larger pictures?  (the ones from the gasser on are only thumbnail size?)

Thanks!

These are from my I phone-- when I get time--I'll take some pics with my camera so I can control the file size better and get better quality pics.  I'd like them for my portfolio on drag cars anyway.  Thanks for your interest!

How are you getting the Model wheels and tires to work on the car? do they not roll with the chassis?

I don't have the wheels turning right now---as the locals at BPR don't care.  But it would be easy to do--just put the piano wire axles I'm soldering to the top of the frame rails through a tube--then the tire WOULD turn!! FYI

My biggest issue is getting them to turn true without any bumpyness. I had to drill a hole through the middle of my wheel because the axle that came in it was plastic... the axle was attached to the wheel not a press in fit like most others. its a Tamiya model. I guess my real question is "does it matter if they turn or not?"
