Very nice.

Too many yet not enough.

Is this the car you intend to kit?

Looks great Eric.

I like to color combination.

Very cool!

Wonder how close these are to the final version?

Any chance someone recorded this event and can post a video?

Welcome Matteo. I think you can buy the DVDs here. http://www.oldmansmodels.com/id76.html

Sounds like she is making progress, that's good news Joe.

Nice Pat. I had an older air-cooled 125R growing up. Never raced it just used it for trail riding.

Welcome Sam. Not sure if you are aware of Maryland Automotive Modelers Assoc. We have several members from NoVA. Here is our website, maybe you would like to come check out a meeting sometime. http://www.mamasboyz.org/

Yea the Ginther kit was molded in red as was the gift set version. The original Revel release was molded in yellow and a later release was molded in white.

Thanks Jesse and Raoul. Yea I have heard that VRM is planning on a decal sheet but haven't been able to get any further details.

Thank you gentlemen. Here the wheels and headers are permanently installed. I like it as a roadster too.

I will be watching Nie.

I agree 1000%. We should start charging a membership fee.

Great project Curt.

Don't get me wrong the Heller/Union isn't a bad kit, I just think the Fujimi kit captures the shape of the body better. I also prefer the wheels/tires in the Fujimi kit.

Another nice looking kit from Aoshima. They have definitely upped their game.

Finally found the the race recount reference I was looking for Gene. According to The Cobra-Ferrari Wars recount of the '64 Daytona Continental 2000 KM race the Gurney/Johnson FIA roadster burnt a piston late in the race and dropped a cylinder. When they tore the engine down they determined the burnt piston was caused by "improperly formulated track-side fuel".

I don't own the Heller/Union but I have seen it. I do own the Fujimi. That should tell you which kit I prefer. And if you do want to go the full detail route HRM offers a very nice trans-kit to build-out the Fujimi.

These guys remind me of the Stray Cats.
