I'm very glad you are pleased with the design.Topspin.D wrote:Sporty the spoon is awesome. I think that once you understand the key design principles of PWD cars you can make any shape/style reasonably fast... but the spoon is something that is very achievable with minimal tooling (drill/rasp/file/sandpaper) and produces very solid outcomes.sporty wrote:How do you feel about the spoon cars ? The design and shape.
You pleasedo with them ?
Seth, these are full weight 2.6 g wheels. I tried to pick the best ones out of my stash of wheels (which wasn't very good .003 runout). I didn't even put them on my unimat lathe to true them up. After 3 years of pack wins, I didn't want any question about doing anything shady... These cars are pure out of the box (except the balsa for fenders).
I came up with that in 2008/2009.
I'm glad it still does well.
I usually got that shape and style to 9 to 10 grams.
