  1. This looks really good. I could see this car as a throwback scheme at Darlington.
  2. Looks very good. Good job with the paint and the decals. I remember when Jimmy had a run in with Kurt Busch and he popped Busch in the nose. Jack Rousch being the imbecile he could be at times called the cops. Mayhem ensued. Won't see anything like that today.
  3. Great work! The model really looks the part. I sometimes wonder how many of Schumacher's titles would have gone to Senna had he not passed.
  4. Very nice build. Looks very good.
  5. Great job on this build and the whole collection.
  6. Wow, that is incredible!! The details are fabulous. Certainly museum quality work.
  7. Comfortably Numb was already mentioned, but David Gilmore is also spectacular in Sorrow.
  8. Really beautiful builds. I am really fond of the Gatorade car. This is the one that I mentioned in my post for your other car. Great work!
  9. They had a big crash of the website a number of years ago that took several months to bring the site back up. The activity on the site dropped precipitously afterwards.
  10. Great work! Always loved the looks of the Chaparral's.
  11. Great job! Really outstanding. I tried to build the Rutherford Gatorade when I was a kid and it defeated me. I tried again several years ago, and it almost defeated me again. These kits are certainly not for the faint of heart. You did a fantastic job.
  12. Mark, if your workspace isn't messy, you aren't doing anything. At least that is what I convince myself.
  13. When I was young, my parents worked many weekends and my sister and I stayed with a great aunt and great uncle. Most of these weekends, they provided me with a model car to build. I don't remember much about the kits other than they were built unpainted. A number of them had the bodies in multiple pieces. I am also sure that these were the gluiest of glue bombs. I remember these times fondly now that I am much older. I know I should have shown more gratitude when I was young, but being a typical sniveling little kid, I did not.
  14. Mark J did an outstanding job building one of these kits. Within his build is a computer generated video on how the systems on these cars work. Here is the link.
  15. Great work. I remember fondly how understated the paint schemes were back in the day.
  16. Thanks for the tips, Mark. I will keep them in mind when I build the kit.
  17. Great looking squadron of fighters. Really impressive!
  18. Great looking model. I sometimes wonder the same thing about Tim and how his career would have been and how the history books would be different. After seeing the ESPN show about his life, I wonder if the old guard in NASCAR would have run him out. Richard Petty seemed to detest him and France, Jr. did not know what to do until Tim got sick, and then they turned on him with a vengeance.
  19. Great work on both! A very cool and timeless paint scheme.
