Two sets of Space City Shootout photos. Mine are on Fotki. DM Tai's on Facebook. We had 55 modelers enter 242 models. Not all are shown in these galleries. On Fotki On Facebook

I took some and hope to have them online by the end of this week. I'll let y'all know when they are up.

Bump. We are one week away from the Texas Shootout.

The Houston Automotive Modelers Society will present their 2025 Shootout model car contest on July 12, at the Stafford Centre in Stafford TX. Attached is a 2 page show flyer and a description of the contest categories. Registration and table forms can be found on the club web site at: https://hams-club.org/contest-categories/

Here's another one of mine. 1/25 scale this time. Revell AAR Reynard.

Here are a couple of 1/40 scale white metal kits from Precision Miniatures. A McLaren and a Wildcat.

ScaleHobbyist.com also has a good supply.

Hamilton is 40 and Alonzo is 43. 🙂 But, yes, I'm not buying Brad Pitt (61) as an F1 driver.

Actually, Indy Cars (on an oval) have a higher top speed than F1.

Not exactly cherry, but Splash Paints out of Oregon have Chevrolet "Black Rose".

Blue car with wheelie bars, yellow car without.

There are hundreds (if not thousands) on eBay.

Go to the masthead (list of magazine editors, contributers, etc.) in the front of the magazine and look for "Sales & Marketing" under "Adverting Inquiries". The latest issue I have on hand is #222 from 2023. It lists Wes Hofferber (wes@modelcarsmag.com), but I do not know if he still holds that position.

According to their SDS sheets (found online) they are the same.

IPMS/USA's web site has a list of IPMS model shows around the country. It is continually updated, so if you don't see anything listed for later in the year, check back in a few weeks or months. https://ipmsusa.org/all-events
