Nothing more fun than building your own creation. Looking good!!

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks man! Has been a fun project

[@pats-slots]

Wow Marty well done that chassis really loves the track so loving your build coool🤟🤟

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Pat! It was all good until I installed the body 😂

[@shotgundaveslotcars]

Fast, smooth, quiet. That's a winning combo. You're doing a great job on it Marty. I can't wait to wring it out at Harry's.

[@twolinesslotcars]

I hope I can make it run that good with the body on it.. I have my doubts 😂

[@Dafingers1]

Sounds solid. Love your sponsor lol

[@twolinesslotcars]

Powered by ROST 🤣

Nice job Marty , looks great

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks John!

[@BSslotcars]

Looks like it's pretty darn smooth!! It's bitching with the body on it!!!

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks man! Let’s hope it is a good runner once the body is mounted

[@billffromnh]

I would say your chassis building was a success. On your road course it looked fast & appears to drive smoothly. That's remarkable since you hadn't trued the tires or done any tuning. Performing both, especially truing the tires, will make it drive even smoother. I don't know how they weight the cars for Harry's. You may not need much. Keep in mind that the more you scratchbuild, the better you'll be at doing it & the easier it'll become. Just have fun & good luck in this aspect of the hobby.

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Bill! Mounting the body has been a bit of a challenge… but we will get it.. then it will be all about test and tune

[@Michael_63]

She’s running great Marty, just be carful not to run it too much without the body on it. It will be a different car once you get the body on. That’s when you want to tune it. Well done!

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Michael!

[@bobroberts6722]

Well done Marty.

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Bob! It is getting better.. and better.

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Greg!

[@ralphmatthews8498]

[@twolinesslotcars]

Let’s hope as good with the body on 😂

[@SlotCarWildman]

looks good Marty

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Eric!

[@SpareRoomSlotCars]

Wow, she's a runner

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks Gene.. once I got the body on it is a mess 😂😂

[@SpareRoomSlotCars]

@@twolinesslotcars oh. No

[@slotripper]

Looks fine Marty,gotta start somewhere,runs good too!!! I have same 3020xts station you have...very very nice for the price. p s.....put lid on your rosin paste can,keep dirt out!!

[@twolinesslotcars]

Thanks 👍

[@TADD29]

Gonna be a good one.

[@twolinesslotcars]

Mounting the body.. 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

[@TADD29]

@@twolinesslotcars Body mounting is one of the toughest things to get right. Harry has videos on how he does it. And yeah it will be a different animal with the body on. Good luck!!

[@twolinesslotcars]

@@TADD29 body mounted.. 👍

[@SCALE_SLOTCARS]

Wow Marty thats really glued to the track ..Im guessing its due to the heavy brass body and a deep guide blade ? Thanks for posting , great progress mate 🙂

[@twolinesslotcars]

108 grams.. got some weight to it for sure..

[@Parry635]

awesome build. what will putting on the body do? i'm assuming a few 10ths slower ? looking forward to the build.

[@twolinesslotcars]

Not sure yet, but I am guessing 2-3 tenths or so..
