Re: Indy Roadster

This is your place to post your restoration from start to finish. Factory built cars only. All others go in the home brew section.

Funky monk,

I check in once in awhile. I raced 1/4 scale a few years ago, (think front engine WCM stock cars with full interior and driver figure) don't have one now but the itch never goes away.
Started racing before the first Super Nationals and had a ball racing almost every class of 1/4 scale over the years.

I used to hang with Ron Schoeb back when he built an off set super modified that was wicked looking. I had an Arrow super with Raco Indy car wing. Lost all pics in a couple "fires" (ex girlfriend, ex wife).

Sorry for the thread jack here....

When I see great builds such as yours I just have to chime in when I can. You are building a beautiful car here.

And then you make me start looking around at Q scale again.....

I also thought the original wheels looked better.

Here's something about the Honda fourstroke in an FG Marder. Should give you a good idea of the size and performance and sound:

Know that the Honda GX25 is very compact! You can also position it horizontally!
I show you how with the help of photographs.

WOW a work of art! Are you going to make brakes for it?

Emilio:

Your Indy Roadster has a 'factory look' about it. It's quite an achievement. Well done!
