When you say, runs the "same"
Do you mean consistant times
or Crappy/Good

'cause if it's the second, I nominate "Booger" cause it always runs crappy,, with or without lube.... lol ;D

Being one of the 'New Guys' to League Racing, I don't
know the inside joke about the derby car Booger....

Pat and/or Mood could you enlighten me and the
others???

Great parody on the Burger King graphic!!!!

i'm new here but here's my 2 cents our district doesnt allow the boys to touch the cars once they go threw tech and to make it to the finals you will have to run 20 - 22 passes. keep putting graphite on the wheels and keep spinning.

Shut yo mouth... But I'm talkin' bout Booger... We can dig it. Booger shall we say...has a great ability to recover. Pat will have Moody pickin' and grinnin' in no time.

pony: Don't over heat the axle. I did that once too and I had to resand the axle. Two seconds of the flame is all I did. I hold the axle in the drill chuck, heat it then immediately spin it against the silly putty. I then wipe the axle down by hand. Feb 23, 2018 22:02:58 GMT -7

pony: I do the same technique with the hard ski waxes which I use a lot. You can heat the axle or if you don't want to use the heat just hold the hard ski wax against the spinning axle. Use high speed. The ski wax transfers by friction and the heat of the spin. Feb 23, 2018 22:06:02 GMT -7

pony: Remember though you still need some form of silicone on the axle after the ski wax. Plastics on steel always needs silicone. I don't have the technical know how to do a video and post it. It's the same process as polishing compounds and polishing wheels. Feb 23, 2018 22:09:47 GMT -7
