I have been modeling for years, but not usually cars.  I fly RC planes and helicopters and build models of aircraft and military vehicles.  I am returning to car models because of the release of several new Funny Car kits.  I was a drag racer back in the day and the nostalga funny cars hit a nerve.  I have a great deal to learn in technique as the world of car modeling is very different (gloss paints, detail wiring and hoses) from my other modeling.

Real cars that I have owned or driven.

1966 Barracuda Formula S, my first drag car in J showroom stock back in the 60's
1962 Corvette, 1969 350 cu in LT-1 engine
1968 Dart S with the big block 383.
1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, my best money making race car.  Run in many locations on the East Coast as a bracket car with a 440 cu in automatic.

Crew (amateur status) on the Hippi Hemi A/FC in the East Coast Fuel Funny Car ckt.
Crew for Bob Simmonds Devistator jr Fuel Dragster, Purple Magic AA/FC.
