Of special note in these pics, Howie built the winning FK-King chassis of flat track racer, Tracy Chin,

who took his first King track victory ever.

When we started Retroing, I designed a Chicagoland F1 chassis that Eddy Mac produced for me.

 

It was a 6 rail chassis with 3 - soldered .047" rails per side.

 

It ran well,  but I guess I was 2 rails short. LOL

Below is the pic of that original C/R F1 chassis, which finished 3rd at the first Sano, raced by the late Bob Oaks.

 

Check out that turbine blade of a pinion on Bob's Proslot motor. It's got to be a 9 or a 10T.

On that same page I also stumbled across this line From Greg "Cheater" Wells;

 

"Therefore, Dave Fiedler is not only the "Sanoest Dude in America" but also the "Most Wickedest Sano Slot Racer on the Planet".
