with R4 tires? Looks like you can adjust the wheels with the standard wheels for the R1 tires but is it the same for the wheels for the R4 tires?

Once you hit the L4701 and above the track width can be changed with the R4 package.

IF you are doing row spacing on the MX series even with the R1's, the fronts are really tight on 30" rows.

Yes, the tractors pay the bills with a little left over (family eats up the fun budget any more) for my real passion! Which as you guessed, old cars and really like the newer ones also.

I grew up in and around Lansing Michigan which is the birthplace for Oldsmobile.
My dad and uncle retired from Olds.

We have a small stable of Oldsmobiles (limited by space) not by choice. And I am stickler for clean inside and out vehicles.

In the past I have ran the largest Oldsmobile show in the world which is an Oldsmobile only show which is now pushing 600 cars hard. I am a master judge for the national club.

You could say I have an OCD! Oldsmobile compulsive disorder.;):eek::D

The Impala has won the Impala of the month on Impala forums, the Alero has won best of class many times and now has been put into a preservation class (retired) the 70 has pulled in many 2nd place in it's class various local and Olds cars shows. The truck, well I am not in any of the truck forums as of now. Too many forums already! 4 Olds, Impala, Maui and the obvious!

Great collection ! Ransom E. would beam with pride !

Actually when I first saw your username I thought you might be a BMW fan. My all-time favorite car was a 1970CS (2800CS) pic is my '73 Take care, Dick B

Wow!! Outstanding collection of cars! Thanks for posting the photos.

And thanks for the tractor info. Is it best to make the track as wide as possible for stability?

Well we have something in common, cars and tractors. It could be just a guy thing!:D

Not terribly up to speed on my German rigs, I knew it was a 3 series of some sorts but if I did my homework right. It appears to be 3.0 CS? Forgive me if I am wrong:eek:

Very nice car! Still a fool for the three B's when going for cars/trucks Blue, Beige and Burgundy.

Thank you for compliment!:)

Yes, widening out will help with stability. Also it helps the mud clearance between the fenders and tires. Loading the tires should help as well.
