After checking what I have I came up with this combo. 1981, MUSTANGS. THE RACE VERSION WAS FORDS COME BACK TO PRO RACING IN THE US IN THE IMSA CIRCUIT. THEY RACED IN EUROPE WITH THE ZAKSPEED CAPRIS, AND WERE DOMINATING. THE MUSTANG RACED HARD WITH KLAUS LUDWIG IN THE WHEEL. THE 4 CIL TURBO GAVE THE 935 PORSCHE A HAND FULL AT THE TRACK. THE ROAD VERSION WAS ALRIGHT, NOT AS MUCH HP UNTIL THEY BEAFED UP THE 5.0 IN 85. THE ENGINE ON THE ROAD VERSION CAME IN TWO OPTIONS, 4 CIL TURBO, "PINTO ENGINE" OR THE V8.....IF I GO WITH THE 4 CILINDER ON THIS BUILD..WILL PUT HEADERS, INTERCOOLER AND A BIGGER TURBO. THIS IS MY ENTRE..."LOCKED UP"...READY TO GO.

THIS IDEA POP IN MY HEAD, A BUILDOFF WERE YOU HAVE TO BUILD A RACE CAR AND THE CONTERPART OF THAT RACE CAR. JUST AS THE EXAMPLES ABOVE. IT WILL BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT YOU CAN COME UP WITH. NOW LET'S SET SOME RULES. 1. START DATE JUNE 11TH 2011 ( DAY OF THE LE MANS RACE ) 2. FINISH DATE NOVEMBER 30TH. (SIX MONTH BUILD) 3. MUST SHOW THE TWO KITS UNBUILT BEFORE YOU START SHOWING PROGRESS. (YOU CAN START DOING THAT RIGHT NOW) 4. NO DUBLICATES, IF YOU SEE THAT A FRIEND ALREADY STARTED BUILDING WHAT YOU WERE PLANNING TO DO, CHANGE THE MODEL, USE DIFFERENT DECALS, COLORS, ETC...BUT DON'T DO THE SAME, FOR THAT REASOND POST EARLY. 5. CAN DO ANY TYPE OF RACE CAR, BUT....NO FORMULAS OPEN WHEEL CARS OR PROTOTYPE CARS/ C CARS. 6. THE CAR MUST HAVE A ROAD VERSION OF THAT PARTICULAR MODEL. (I WILL APPROVE EACH ENTRE). 7. IF YOU ARE DOING AN ORIGINAL OR FANTASY RACE TEAM..THAT'S IS WELCOME. 8. LET'S KEEP THIS SIMPLE AND FUN, LET'S NOT GET ULTRA TECNICAL AT THE END OF THE BUILD OFF WE WILL HAVE A POLL OF ALL THE FINISH PROJECTS TO SEE WHO ARE THE TOP 3. HOPE WE HAVE A GREAT TURN OUT AND WILL LOVE TO HAVE AN ANNUAL "RACE ON SUNDAY/ SELL ON MONDAY" BUILDOFF YOUR FRIEND 3MEN2S.... PS. I DID THE BUILDOFF FOR GROUP 5 CARS AND THE LIONS DRAGWAY AND BOTH WERE A SUCCESS, HOPE THIS ONE STICKS. THANKZ

R U SERIOUS?

THE LAST SHOT, LOVE IT...THE SPARK ON THE TOP OF THE CAR, ASOME. GREAT TIME, THOSE DAYS...KEEP UP THE HISTORY BUILDUPS

THIS JAGERMAISTER AS I CALL IT IS LOOKING SICK, MAN YOU GOT SKILL THANKS FOR POSTING, I AM TAKING NOTES AND LEARNING A LOT BRO. AND ALL OF YOU THAT THINK THE HOBBY IS ALL COMPETITION LEARN FROM THIS GUY, HE SHARES HIS SKILLS, POST EVERY TIME AND DOES NOT HOLD BACK, AFRAID OF COPYCATS,....HE WILL STILL BEAT YOUR MODEL HANDS DOWN, BECAUSE IS ALL ABOUT SKILL AND CONFIDENCE IN YOUR WORK. SORRY FOR THE VENTING, BUT HATE PEOPLE THAT JOIN FORUMS LIKE THIS ONE THEY DON'T POST NOTHING, JUST NEG COMENTS AND THEN THEY ONLY POST THE FINISH PROJECT AND THE THROFY, "PROBLABLY BECAUSE OTHERS HELP THEM WITH THE PAINT" TERESI, KEEP BUILDING DRAG CARS, THAT'S YOUR CALLING.

magnifico!!!!!

Had some spare time and was able to do a little more on this project. worked on the suspention, trying to lower this thing as much as possible also worked on the engine, it needs the pullies and plumbing etc. I think that in another week I could finish.

was able to do a little work on this thing, fabricated the rear wing and painted and installed the scoop. now I need to work on engine and suspension.

I own the movie, both and the wife don't understand why some times I have to watch it again and again "I mist those days" specially in drag racing when dragsters were made in your garage, cars were not draped with sponsors and chrome was a must..... I am trying to get that dragster so bad, Does anybody carries those decals, aftermarket. I am sure if I get to buy this kit, that the decals for sure are toast. thanks for sharing

just regular masking tape raped around a wire. then twist the tape to get the wrinkle look thanks 4 watching. Love Leal at the light...."FLASH"
