Jean:

Which body will you use?

K

[jean phi]

We will make a copy of the Lexan body, because I would not endomager the original!
I think choosing the model Lumina, but Ford also I really like the color Coors

I want to buy BRP wheels for my GN RACO!
Who can give me information on the width and offset rim?
I'm from France, so I have to choose exactly my purchase!

Guess it doesn't really matter, but your bodies appear to be a Pontiac and a Buick..??

Regular BRP wheels with standard offsets will fit fine on a RACO GN. What I found is that I needed the tallest tire he makes for the rears so the car does not bottom out. I bought 6.2' diameter rear wheels and they are perfect.

A few more details, the front wheel circumference could be 18.5"(does not need to be as tall as the rear), the rear wheels could be between 6" and 6.2" diameter. They will fit and look fine.

If you plan to run it on a oval, i would add a little stagger in the rear, like a 6.2" right rear, and left rear about 1/4" less in circumference.

Good luck.

thank you very much JKVIPER
But in Europe we do not have oval track!
6 inches is ideal
