Randy Ayers Nascar Modeling Forums

Not strictly on point, but I believe Richmond is the best track in NASCAR. I always liked watching the racing there, tight enough for close racing but wide enough that they did not have to hit each o ...

The car is a rear steer Ford set-up, with the steering linkage behind the front spindles. Also the lower control arms have a single pivot location on the chassis cross-member, and they have strengthen ...

I have been studying that car for a while as I want to build the Darrell Waltrip car from a year earlier. From what I see the front suspension is also different from what is offered in the Monte Carl ...

Are there any discernible differences between the bodies of the 2020 and 2021 Camaro racecars?
My understanding is there will be. The cars down the sides should more resemble a real car. Current ca ...

I was able to buy 5 for $30 including shipping on ebay this week from the time frame I wanted. I will take a look at Powells as well.

The 2022 car is the biggest change seen in nascar since they abandoned production car chasis and went to purpose built racing frames.

You said in your earlier post you had built up through 2019. Use whatever chasis you used for your 2019 car for the years 2020 and 2021. The 2022 car is going to be all new, independent rear suspens ...

I found the UMI books there are some pretty reasonable deals on them. The 1988 I found on ebay I think it is higher demand and the price on that one is high.

Thanks I found that photo. I could not tell if it was a race win though. I ran searches on Harry Gant as I liked him back in the day I remember his four consecutive wins but also remember how he cou ...

I was looking at some stuff on the modeling news and the latest releases are out from Quite studio, they are now offering a bunch of stuff for military trucks. Made me wonder if enough of us emailed ...

I have watched probably a thousand hours of nascar races especially in the 1990s and 2000s. In that time frame I basically never missed a race. So I want to model a car kind of in a race finish look ...

It will be good to see on the what wheel when thread to pin down the time frames various wheels were used. With that said these teams are preparing upward of 10 sets of wheels for a race weekend. So ...

I have tried a lot of primers, I started with spray cans like duplicator, then discovered Tamiya spray primer. I relied on tamiya spray primer exclusively for many years, however once in a while bein ...
