RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

I like the quarterscale banner and the photo of the guy holding the F1 with the "lit" road behind it. :)

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Thanks, There is MUCH more to come. Its still under construction and is in a "test" state right now. I am going to update with more pictures tonight. I hope this site will be of help to newbies and collectors alike. Since its so hard to find info on the net on 1/4 scale cars that are NOT nascar style.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

yankee pic section is now updated.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

So are you in any of the F1 photos?

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

NO!!! ;) Those pics are from europe. They raced those things hard there!! Mine is actually the green one that has a sheet background.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

The "Ford" with Benetton Sportsystem. Does that have an internal antenna setup?

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

No. It was new and not driven. It is still un-driven.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

8-5

fixed dead links and added yankee literature. Be prepared for a looooong load up time on that one!

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

There is no long load time here or there better not be considering what tier level I am on. Of course, it also depends on your host server.

How is that Bergonzoni in your garage? There is a used one for sale here locally. By the way, I think you forgot to list the one with the wheels sticking out in the upper right hand corner, not that you can really set it anyway. ;)

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Up in the right hand corner is just 1/8 and 1/10 scale junk. Who cares about that?

The Bergonzoni is a very good driver. I drive it in front of the house and it is waaaay fast!!! Never raced it though.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

I own some of that "junk" too even though it is some high dollar junk.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Yea, its high dollar. Problem is in a few years that small stuff aint worth anything. I only have 6 1/8 & 1/10 cars. I really stopped buying them and started investing in 1/4 scale. If you buy them used they hold their value quite well. Thats what I dont understand about these $1500 ++ Tmaxxes on ebay?!? In 5 years they are going to be worth $300!!......Dont EVEN get me started on RTR and what junk the hobby shops sell today....dang now I am ranting like a madman!:)

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Finally... Raco pics are up under the raco section. There are some nice ones there!!!

enjoy.:D

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

The black Indy CART without the tires looks pretty nice. Tag, the local driver who lives here just won the last Champ race. :D

That thing is nice! Looks like it has some type of mini V8?

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Yes that is a real working v8 engine. I have more pictures to load tonight and there will be a couple more with v8's!!!

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

As your gov said, "I'll be back."

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

I updated some of the car pics, but the best part I added is a historic pic section under history for raco. There are many pics of the old Raco Modelsport!!!

Sorry, did not get anymore v8 pics up yet.

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

New V8 indy car pictures posted now under the RACO picture page.

Enjoy!!!!
Mike

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

very nice and well laid out site;). i did learn a lil something about raco. keep on update'in..PB

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Great site man i really enjoyed looking around.keep up the good work.By the way i've been a mechanic for 20 years and have worked on some exotic cars and race cars but i've never seen a V-8 that small i was wondering if you could send me some lit. on those im real courious any help would be greatly appreciated

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

I don't know who made that v8 but have you ever seen http://www.conleyprecision.com/
Awesome stuff, but big bucks!

Mike

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Thanks dude those videos were pretty cool .Ihad heard of them but never seen one .maybe i can find more sites out there id really like to find out more technical info. you were right they are very expensive mostly for people with more money than brains ya know

RE: New 1/4 scale site!
 

Those engines put out about 4hp. The ones in the Indy cars are made by a guy in Europe. There was very few made. The options were fuel injection or carbs. I have more close ups to add to the site on the black Indy car. Conley is also going to release a replica 1/4 scale Ford 9!QUOT! rear-end! As for the price on the engines... I take offense to that. They are really a work of art, they also hold their value quite well. Conley sells quite a few and there is a 14week wait on them!! These machines are for people that only want the best.
