Yeah! Hershman would rather beat-up on the painter, which he did. :laugh2: ;)

Why race beauty when you can race a "five second" Hershman Special????? :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

Mike, I have them for the next race... I didn't get them to Rande before the race and he wasn't too thrilled about mounting and reinforcing them at the track. We did mount one of the Ti22s on Sunday morning for the Can-Am race, but the back-up car was working better and the body was not a direct pin on from one chassis to the other.

Noose was raggin me all weekend about it.

The biggest shame was Dave Reed's beauty not making the top three in concours. :shok:

I agree. I liked it a lot. Sometime less is more. I prefer Dave's and especially the one's Noose did for you
over Noose's personal body.

Hi Ron,

What's up with all that secret inscription you and Rande write on the bottom of your cars? :shok:

Is it to identify which cars have brakes and which ones don't?

Which my reply to you is, "You don't need no steenkin' brakes". :laugh2:

It's some kind or Rande "code". Some of it has to do with what body was originally on the car and lap times ran and who know's what else. I am sure it's his way of getting the better/faster choice of which one he is going to run. :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

My car had plenty of brakes once I cleaned the contacts in my controller.

Dave was pitting by me and is great guy. He didn't want to screw with mounting the body so I told him no problem I would do it. About 15 minutes later he had it all ready to go. It did look pretty.
