Still have mine on a shelf. Time flies.

I got one for Christmas 72. About 4 or 5 friends also had one. Everyone repainted the Pinto body to their own preference. You could hop up the .049 a little. Always wanted to put a bigger engine in one but never did.

Never had any of the racecars, but I had the Bob Hoover Rockwell International P-51 Mustang. I believe it contacted pavement more than a few times.

That's a more expensive contact.

I had quite a few .049 powered vehicles as a kid and one of the only survivors was the red Stinger. It was in such intact shape I put it on evilbay about 5 or 10 years ago and was really surprised what it brought. A lot more than it cost new I'm sure. I think the fastest Cox car I had was a white plastic road racer, I am thinking a 66 Chapparall? That thing was stupid fast and when it left the string the last time and went head on into a curb it was over.

Was I the only one that poured some bleach on the ground to do a burnout on ? Back then they were still using it at the track. When the Cox car spun and kicked up the stuff, it would get all over me, and my clothes, leaving clothes with bleach burns. Not real smart.

Ah, Dennis...

They had them at the exchange when I was in the PI in the mid 70's... We melted one to the ground trying to do a Fire Burnout... opps....
Lighter fluid, a Zippo, Lot's of black smoke from burning plastic....

Does Cox still build motors anymore?

That was the Cox powered P-51 tether plane Dave.

I remember Cox made a .15 motor about twice the size of the .049. That would be fun to see what a Bigger Motor would do in one of those Dragcars?
