Show us your wheels...

Post by bobjeffreson »

Over the years I'v been amazed by the wheels produced by talented people for 1/4 scale. Their "cuteness factor" has always grabbed me.
Here are the wheels I've managed to get hold of ....

Bob, my Sprint Car has BRP plastic wheels... Here's my Pro Stocker's wheels.

The Fronts were machined by Bob S. and the Rears were cast and machined by John Foster of Quarter Mortar. John provides aerospace quality castings that can be polished per my instructions in the tips and tricks section.

The first two pictures are of the sprint cars at Bristol, TN. The top qualifyer set the track record that still stands today. They were going 2 seconds faster than the Sprint Cup NASCAR drivers. Those things really move with that amount of banking.

I'll probably never make it to Knoxville, Iowa, but the finals are in Charlotte, North Carolina this year and that's within driving distance - first picture.

Awesome wheels all, to be sure. Paul, you know you now have to build a 289 Cobra body to go with those wire wheels! Next, a Ferrari 250GT SWB. I know, all things are possible, just send moneys...

Cheers
