On the scrap piece of plastic, try different fine sand papers and wet sanding. That creates a flat look, but if not done with the correct grit or too long will cloud or score it inside. All this is done inside to look flat outside.That’s what I'm going to try. Using some scrap Lexan I will spray a PS gunmetal on the inside and outside. Let it tack up good and then primer the outside gray. Let that dry for a day or two then hit it with a hammer. If it just blows off then I will know.
I like the gray flat look for a scale appearance.
The paint on the inside of a Lexan bodys looks to shiny and smooth it is not scale.
I’m going to also do some tests with ps1 white and black backer to see how that looks and PS1 white with a matte clear on the outside.
The Fedex driver today needed a signature for my Tower order, but there have been times I have selected the signature option and the Fedex driver just signed my name and dropped off the package.I did not notice it till i was throwing away the plastic and it fell on the floor.
Anyhow after 2 hours sitting in my truck doing computer stuff for work the FEDEX guy showed up. He did need a signature. But I got the package. I’ll just use regular shipping from now on.
A ball diff works like a spool when going straight, but when turning, there is enough force to cause the balls to slip to the next pocket. So they would be really good in a drag car. Are they adjustable?The Dragrace concept stuff seems pretty good. Not cheap but the parts are very well made. And super light.
I have been looking at the no prep stuff as well and the Drag concepts pro chassis is like 500 bucks. I can imaging hitting a curb with that. People would tease me about crying and flayling my arms around. So I went for the kit that replaces the DR10 stock pan.
I’m reading the instructions and it says there is an optional ball differential. I don’t think that is good for drag racing. But I know nothing.
I know traxxas had a ball diff years ago, and if you tighten it to tight it broke or didnt work somehow. I never bought one, and until you explained, I never knew they slipped. can't say if that was hearsay or not.A ball diff works like a spool when going straight, but when turning, there is enough force to cause the balls to slip to the next pocket.
