Dedicated Race Only Rigs?

The flat black is a pretty smart idea....I'm forever wipin' soot off the roof. And we are using that low soot formula Rotella...LOL

 

[Timbeaux]

... The only problem is that you dont notice the soot and lean against it and then you look like an idiot. Just watch folks flop down on the tailgate of a truck with sacks.Gives you a case of the soot butt LOL

 

[THATpreston]

Thought they called it monkey butt? LOL

 

[crzycowboy]

Soot Butt...AKA Monkey Butt......LOL

 

[Timbeaux]

How bout a smokin' monkey butt? LOL

 

[THATpreston]

I'm diggin' this one...

 

[Timbeaux]

Jeff, I'm sorry, I have run your thread into the weeds LOL

 

[THATpreston]

I'm guilty too...time to redeem myself.

The paint on the bike is a 2 stage. Hot Rod black base with clearcoat. Yep....clearcoat. You add a matte agent to the clear to get the desired affect. We applied the pinstriping to the base black and cleared the whole shebang. Works great.

[RacinDuallie]

[crzycowboy]

Looks like it might protect ya there Jeff......LOL

 

[RacinDuallie]

We like a good strong chassis, so it'll last more than 200 runs and not get tired.... Plus remember its being built as a Pro Mod for Diesel Racing, not a converted ex-gasser truck.....:rules:
Another pic:

 

[Timbeaux]

What does that dude weigh in at now Jeff?

 

[RacinDuallie]

Its all Chromoly tubing- we'll scale it when Vanishing Point is done... It's liteweight.....:evil :woohoo:

 

[RacinDuallie]

I just put a request into Jim @ Vanishing Point to update me with some pics, They have been moving the old smaller shop into a shop that's more than double the size of the old one. . . . Same building location different space. I'll post em up ASAP .......

 

[RacinDuallie]

:doh: June, the secretary over there at Vanishing Point is on vacation:doh: And she's the only one there that can figure out the postings and sendings of progress pics.:bang

Jim has pressed forward onto phase 2 of the build. And body mounting and modifications and tinning the truck out are a small part of phase 2....

The center bump in the hood is to be cut and extended up for clearance, Jim said it will extend up the windshield approximately 12-14 inches:rockwoot:

:woohoo: :woohoo:

Damn if this project aint taking so dang long.......:soap: LOL LOL Don't mind me I'm just anxious!:evil

 

[Hoss]

That is one nice ride you got going there :ylsuper:
I am looking forward to seeing it run. By the time it is ready there should be a few other boys in the playground to play with :evil
I think I will just hang out back here in grade school and watch you big boys go at it :bow:
