Hot Wheels, TTC entry update, and another lead pour
Просмотров 7521 день назад
Thanks for watching. As a side note for a viewer, none of the 5 cars I had that qualified for TTC had the wheels sticking out past the fender flares. Just to let you know I saw that and heard you. Though I make these videos for me, I really enjoy the comments. "Paw, is that you Paw? I got the gold right here Paw. The gold Jose and I stole from the bank." Please enjoy.

Thanks for watching. I cut this from 27 to 11 minutes and the movie quote was cut so here it is. "Dr. Banner, now might be a really good time for you to get angry" "That's my secret Captain, I'm always angry". Yes, it's an easy quote for most. But it also has meaning to me. Thank you. Again, thanks for watching. I aways appreciate the comments. Together we build better cars. I will keep you all...

    After several nights of single digit temps, today is balmy by comparison and I think it's hovering around freezing. Anything less than 20F, I turn into Grumpy Cat. Wanna go outside, Chris? "NO. Because NO." A great retrospective on projects over the months and years, I remember all those Corvette painting videos, even knew your secret for getting paint to stick to a chrome finish before you reminded us all! From Blueberry to Root Beer, and oh-oh-oh, that stealth inspired Black Chrome! Hey, I found this bit from comedian Lewis Black, it ties in pretty well with the weather and your Rochester NY story: Y'know, it was really nice weather if you were a ...******' moose. If you had fur on your nuts, it was a festival out there. I didn't have a thought the whole winter. Seriously, I spent the whole winter...the only thought I had was...f**k, IT'S COLD! Or it's cold as f**k! Halfway through the winter I decided I didn't want to be a comic anymore. I wanted to be a bear. Because bears are more evolved. It gets cold and what does the bear do? It goes, "I'm goin' to BED! This blows!" And it gets warm and he goes, "What? f**k it. Time to wake up." They gotta stop reporting wind chill. That's nonsense. It really is. I don't know where they came up with it; why they came up with it; it's a lie. They go, "It's 27 degrees today, but with the wind chill, it's minus three." Well then, it's minus THREE, a*****e! I don't need to know what the weather was like if conditions were perfect. It was just..it was too goddamn cold...and there's no reason for that. _Never give up, never surrender,_ to prove I was there to the last, Bill. Go warm up!

    It’s 18 degrees outside where I live, so I know what you’re going through. Once the temperature goes below 54, I have to limit my time outside. I used to think about moving south to get away from the cold but then went to Virginia to visit my brother and it there was more snow than I left in New Jersey. I have friends and family in Texas, even they have snow. I figure that I’ve got the best median temperature where I am. No Lake Effect Snow like northern NY or the brutal cold and snow of Maine; our summer weather is hot and humid but it’s tolerable. It’s easier to stay put than move. I’ve got a few places to work on my cars indoors so I’m not freezing or baking either. I need to get my old paint booth set up again; it’s got a vent fan that blows outdoors and good incandescent lamps for lighting and keeping the models warm to help them dry. I’m getting chilly just watching you. Brrr!! The French Chef is more like Chilly Willy The Penguin.

      @ I know a little bit about Earle and the surrounding area. If you ever watch the movie Clerks, it was filmed a few blocks away from Earle. I used to go down there for fishing with my father. We’d get moved around by the military boats occasionally when something was coming. I forget if I ever said it but: Thank you for your service. My grandfather and many uncles were all in the service in multiple branches. I barely remember them telling stories about what they saw and did. It sure was a different time.

    Nice _Challenge Coins_ at the end, strange that no one else appeared to notice I have tons of faith in Nick/TTC as a show runner, the guy knows his track and tested a bunch of cars prior to announcing the event. Some that maybe I would have allowed, Nick has chosen not to and that's totally okay. Some cars were cut because they couldn't compete at all and two cars, top of my mind anyway, would have blown past everything else being too advantageous, so they also weren't on the list. I got here late, the pinned comment has a great idea for the name Oh new rule for the shop: show your finished cars on a safe flat surface, Bill!

    You hit the bottom line here... we are doing the best we can with trying to introduce precision with an imprecise product... because, you know, it is just an experiment! IMHO, you dodged a bullet with the doorslammers anyway... they can be fast but are prone to rollovers in my experience.

  • @billysmidway7032
    @billysmidway7032 7 дней назад

    Good video, Bill. I’ve had problems with some glues for many years of model railroading and radio controlled cars. I learned that CA loses its bond with heat, so you can try heating the axle near the wheel, hot but not hot enough to melt the plastic. I’ve also used tiny drops of 3-in-1 oil in the wheel to beak up the CA and help flush it out, then use Isopropyl Alcohol to clean the oil away. I’ve saved a few axles that way. Even if they aren’t as fast as they were, they still make a good base for displays since the car doesn’t try to run away.

    • @StoopidFishRacing
      @StoopidFishRacing 7 дней назад

      Yeah, years of building and flying R/C airplanes of all types and scales taught me that there is a glue for every purpose. I used CA since the 80's and it is excellent for quick glue ups and general building but the issues can be many and it is unforgiving. We used a lot of CA/Baking soda bonds to add strength and maybe that could be used here but too many downsides for me to bother with. If I was going to use CA for axles it would be the black rubberized CA version they used to sell for gluing rubber tires to plastic wheels for R/C Cars... Bob Smith or Great Planes used to sell it... I haven't done anything with cars in ages... not sure if it is still available... but I'm gonna look online right now! 😂😂😂

    Just the thing I wanted to tune in for after a grocery run tonight! Super good video Bill, some hosts have that gift of making the viewer feel they're right in the workshop, an honoured guest. Hahaha I sure don't mind it's a 20 minute video, been sticking around through the long and the short shows. I like peering over your shoulder through this side of the screen learning and laughing alongside for the ride. Every time you get the beer burps, my dad (Navy vet) would likely have said "Bring it up again and we'll _vote_ on it!" Yep, you probably DID do a detailed run down on the Aston-Martin, I just consume so much diecast content, hard to keep it all straight one week to the next. So satisfied with your explanation of why E6000 was NOT used here, because I might have mentioned it otherwise. Builders/racers can get a bit married to their process, it isn't for me to interfere. Just a weird and inconvenient arrangement of the wheels and base that was giving enough trouble as it is. Only a suggestion, get with Stoopid Fish Racing, he has an alignment jig design that might interest you, something to put your own 3D printer to work on. Similar to the RedLineDerby design, but bigger, you can work two cars at once

    Ahhh just enough coffee to hang with a "talkie" video, not enough yet for a full racing episode. I'll be visiting Big Keg's show next, he's from Australia. Data collection my favourite part of a build process! Those two Supras are sweetly dialed in Bill! Not shabby at all on the Caddies, either! You are the one who taught me how we can't measure just once on these scales; it helps to take averages. I try to find a "landmark" on the car in the middle, a pillar, a side mirror, something even a spot in the stock deco if nothing else to line with the edge of the scale. No info on the Aston-Martin for Tiny Track Cars? Keeping that secret until afterwards 😉😁 The intro to "Six Million Dollar Man" is still today used in film schools, hope those kids take great lessons in how to cut together a quality show

That's my hope for you anyway. Yeah it was Boss Championship Racing and his GT event with the hairpin. That guy, before he ever uploaded a video, he put in WORK behind the scenes, really polished all aspects of a show! Just wanted to give praise to the host. The Aston-Martin might not do well there but at _The Big O_ it's open road all the way. Nick will be pleased with your choice! 💯😎🏁

The second was more Ironic as it ended showing the current Top 3 in the danger Zone where Sweet Tangerine is headed. No video of it. Just enjpying that little victory while I can.

    Alright, one of the aspects of building that gets me to _lean in_ and pay even more attention -- data collection! Between you, Dr. Dodge and Beaverworx that itch gets scratched well enough. Our good Doctor uses some industrial behemoth of a scale, the thing measures out four decimal (decibel?) places to the right Certainly at first, we were getting pretty tight tolerances among the two scales, 0.01g! Take a crisp dollar bill, now cut a perfect 1/100th of it, that's how fine it is. I'd say that front/rear balance is as dialed in as a GT class car can get, so much so that I wouldn't bother trying to drill out anything from the inside to fix it further. Leave well enough alone. Wasn't expecting the _Shaun of the Dead_ "No I in Team" bit, nor Flo from _Alice_ with the "Kiss my grits" LOL!! I have enjoyed both celebratory videos of your win at Bay City, just haven't commented. Can you say more about why the replacement car wasn't working for you, the one with unglued axles?

    • @sstdiecastracing2372
      @sstdiecastracing2372 13 дней назад

      Always love hearing from you. I was a bit over weight. I did drill out some lead in select places for the weight and balance. 1.2 grams. Not giving all my secrets away. I snuck 1 gram of tungsten in the very front as it was too light. The other car had polished axles also. Fit together perfect. Neither car had lube or sanded wheels. I ran them both down the same track as the other 4 entrants. It didn't run well. The original was still faster. Hmmm. You are showing your age man. Flo and Sean (Shawn). but I think you missed Clint. I was told, by you? I think I found my signature car. I did make videos of the lead pour for the Supra. I wonder how 75 plus grams will work at Bathurst Racing. Reach out and take it Johnny, then burn it to the ground. As Marc D said, enjoy any win you get. As Bay City Darrell said, The Top Three is going to be hard to beat. Question is, how long can I stay there? Mark at GTR said, Time to change my image and put fear into the Diecast world. I hope I can. Hope I answered all your questions. Thanks Chris.

      Thanks man. Yes. However I did not record what I did with the tires and axles. I have 2 more lead weights already poured. I have 5 more Supras. Thinking about trying to beat R-Lo and send in another car but that will not race until next year (maybe). All the videos I made doing the weight calculations paid off. I put just the right amount of clay to make a (almost) perfect lead mold. I am very happy with the results at Bay City. Dang! I whooped Endcount in the race off.

    There are slight variances in weight on identical cars but in this case it’s probably the fact that you have the windows in one and not in the other. I see you figured that out as the video went on. Lol
