Any time! I didn't realize there was still interest in monthly derby/banger contests or we'd have been doing them!

I'm in for the Month. Spotted an old worn out Blue Oval inching for Saturday night destruction!

I'll cook something creative up! Is a Demon considered full-size?

Are you referencing the HWs '70ish model? The 1/1 version had a 108" wheelbase which is midsize/compact territory.

The Blue Oval product looked a little too worn out, so I'm going with Mopar for this build! Got my entry stripped, primer painted on, and a base coat shot on. Got some ideas for mods on this one as well.

Zach's right, the Demon is too small for a full size class. And anyone running a Road Runner would be throwing money away, not to mention get creamed by the real full-sizers. That said, since Zach has posted pics of a Charger being derbied as recently as last year, I'll allow the Road Runner.

Crafty, I'm assuming that since you're accepting the custom board contest entries as Seans without a computer that you're also receiving the pics for this month's Derby contest. I'll me pming both of my entries to you very shortly.
Thanks for doing this!

I can post the derby poll up if Swifty is unable. Otherwise he will post the poll like normal. I have an entry that I sent to him already for the derby contest so I'm not sure how ethical it would be for me to post the derby poll.

Comments?

No problem. I thought because he didn't have a computer and you were doing the customs board pics that you were probably doing this one too. I would have no problem with you doing the poll and having an entry. Swifty used to do it and I don't ever remember there being any issues. Should I pm my entry to him then?

I already forwarded your entry to Swifty, Dadvball. We'll just wait to see what Swifty says on Tuesday.

If it's just Zach and Bill for this month's contest I can post the poll later. Or Zach can do it as there is no dilemma- I have posted many polls where I was competing (and generally losing!).

Sorry to hear there's only two of us. I thought there would be more entries. But I can understand there are more important things in everybodies lives than playing with little cars. I know I have to scratch and claw to find the time (mostly when my wife is not around :lol: ).

I did an entry I just have no way of taking pics or posting them at the moment, LOL! And to be fair it was mostly a detampo job....

Swifty can go ahead and post the poll when ever you'd like. Nuthouse and Minicup might have entries though I haven't' heard from them personally.
