OK HERE'S MY QUESTION, IF THE CAR ROLLS STRAIGHT AND DOES NOT TOUCH THE RAILS, WILL THERE BE ANY ADVANTAGE IN BUILDING A RAIL RIDER? ALSO I HAVE HAD THIS IDEA OF BUILDING A CAR TO ONLY RUN WITH 2 WHEELS TOUCHING THE TRACK. HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS? IF SO, ANY TIP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

ALSO I HAVE HAD THIS IDEA OF BUILDING A CAR TO ONLY RUN WITH 2 WHEELS TOUCHING THE TRACK. HAS ANYONE TRIED THIS? IF SO, ANY TIP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. if anyone could build a car that will roll 42 feet without touching the center, then this would be the perfect car... I do not think it is possible to do... so 3 wheel rail riding with the weight in the rear and light weight front end is the way to go in my book... I think the 2 wheel can be built but you would not be able to get the weight far enough back to get the max speed out of the car...

I have built a 3 wheel car that rolls strait. I guaranty that the wheels will not touch the guides in 42 feet. I know this is "Smack talk" LOL! But I have done it! I don't know if it's fast because I just roll it on the floor! LOL. I'm sending in my experimental pure stock tomorrow. This will be my first race here at p-d-d-r! I tried the other proxy races twice but my cars always got broke! (Mishandling!) I believe the Jewkes will take car of my cars.

Your car will be in the BEST of care.... We treat every car like a Royal Crown... Also don't forget to send any staging instructions if you have a special way to stage the cars. We want everyone to have Full Throttle Performance. It will be cool to watch the slow motion video of a car not touching the rails......

I look forward in sending the car. Will I get a candy bar if the wheels never touch the rails? LOL. It's all in good fun! I hope the post office doesn't tweak my magic car!
