So I've nearly finished building a race car.
I've also built a trailer to pull it in, it's in fluoro pink,
with rear engine.
Started it about 2 weeks ago .......................
ITS A TOY !!! hahaha,
My daughter's church has a race tournament every year, they provide a wood template and you whittle, spray etc. Then they put it on a track, and you race against other kids
So this year I took charge.. my daughter is like, "when can I do something Dad" !!!! hahaha
So I have a question , regarding the wheels.
So the body is wood, the wheels are a crappy hard molded plastic, no rubber tires as such, secured by pins to a cut out in the wood.
I CAN'T modify the wheels, can't add bearings, springs etc.
Also I'm limited to a weight,
Now, I am allowed to "lubricate" the wheels and wondering what best to use.
Any thoughts, some silicon spray on the pins , a small drop of engine oil
Would scratching/roughing up the wheels give better speed.
Basically it's a downhill slope, both cars are against a gate, lift gate and the cars roll
I'll get some pics when I get home
