Building another racecar!!!!

[vwracing65]

:high5: Yep now that its warming up outside and I have a job. LOL!!! I'm getting back into RC drag racing. With my new setup I'm going to run Pro Stock and should run 1.7's at 75mph in 132ft :hail: Also I've got a sponsorship this season with a company out on the West Coast that is building a Pro Mod '63 vette for me :rockon:

Here's pictures of the new Pro Stock I've been currently working on last few months. Check out all the bling-bling I did to the alum.

Also got the body in couple of days ago from the painter. I had him paint it like a real pro stock that runs up North.

The car is just about finish. I just got my data logger on the car few nights ago and it was a nightmare wiring it up. The data logger will tell me what its doing going down the track like tire shake, motor RPM, temp. and so on. Now the Tekin ESC is just like a MSD ignition. I can adjust the timing, throttle curve, boost, and etc... Its wild and high tech now days.

Well the P/S Mustang is sold on going to San Antonio this Saturday.
