My cars and goodies arrived home safely yesterday. Lot of cool stuff. Can’t wait to try out the flame stencils on the body’s I received. Want to Thank all who contributed. And Thank You again Jeff for hosting another great race for all of us. Rick Feedback on the flame stencils will be greatly appreciated. Just getting started in this and always looking to improve. Bill did you make the flame stencils ? They look awesome can’t wait to try them. I’ve been looking at a machine that I think could make stencils and other cool things. Its called a silhouette cameo 4. Just been lookin and thinkin about getting it because I’m not sure it will do what I want and most of all I’m worried if I can make it do what I want ? Rick |

Rick Rick, Yep, The flame stencils were from me. We bought a similar machine and are just beginning to get in to the basics with it. I'll be curious to learn how you guys fare with these stencils. A while ago I bought some from a guy on ebay. They were white vinyl on a white background. About went cross-eyed trying to work with them. The flames may be easier to apply if you use transfer film (clear film that you put over the flames then apply it to the car). It helps keep everting intact during application. Once on the car, peel the transfer film off. Either side of the stencil can be used to mask off flames. Shoot me a PM if you'd like to discuss the machines. Bill |

I think that "clear film" is called frisket.

My cars have arrived home safely today  . They were slow this time due to this virus and lack of flights. I would like to thank all the sponsors for the goodies and look forward to using the flame stencils. |

My cars have arrived home safely today . They were held up in Chicago airport for three weeks  due to this virus and lack of flights. I would like to thank all the sponsors for the goodies and look forward to using the flame stencils.
I've lost count of how many proxy races I've run by myself or helped run (in excess of 15), but I have never had any cars lost either coming to me or going home. There have been many International shipments during that time as well. I'm posting this for any new members that may be apprehensive about sending their cars anywhere. The current Racemasters here are extremely meticulous and responsible people that treat these cars like they are made of glass. It is unfortunate that Mazda had to wait so long to get his cars, but I felt confident that they would make it back home eventually.......and they did. We were both relieved. Thank you to all the racers that send their cars and trust us with them!! |
