While he did those things, people seem to think he is an icon, he didn't do much else, the F1 championship was not what they call a dominate year. I just dont understand his royal statis. Not in the same league as the Unsers, A J. or even Jimmy Clark. Just sayin. Oh by the way, if team orders were to have Lorenzen win the race and were not complied with, that would have been a big no no.

SAAAweet! When you do detail, you do detail. Envy, envy, envy.

This build is beautiful, and I'm not meaning anything negativity about it, but I do have and have always had a question about Mario Andretti's notoriety. He won Indy once, and One Nascar race even tho it was the Daytona 500. What really makes him so special? I just can't get my head around that. Just wondering.

The world has discarded many things. Some of those things were pretty good. Sad. -

Don't want to throw water on your idea, but there aren't many hills in Fla. and the tallest hill in Fla. isn't but about 6'.. -

My word, another Master. It has been said, envy is a bad thing, I'm having a lot of very bad things. -
I truly admire your detail and craftmanship. The only suggestion I might have is what seems to have been forgotten by most builders is dulling down the tires not just on the treads, but the side walls. Simply take an old worn toothbrush, dip into baking soda( damp brush) and scrub tires, will take the shine right down. No one seems to do this anymore. Just a suggestion. Thanks for sharing.

Got mine day before yesterday, looks like another busted weekend. How am I expected to watch the Vols, when I've got this mag to devour? Thanks again for a great issue.

I really did not mean for my comets to infer that this was strictly for the auto industry, it does fit, but just about anything. Ever get a chance to see inside of an ATM? The people that designed them never, I mean never planed for the fact the machine to have any maintenace preformed, without taking totally unnecessary parts off, and laying upside down. Thats just one example, there are many many more. Over engeering is real watch for it. It's everywhere.

Issue 226 is On Its Way
lucky 130 replied to Dave Ambrose's topic in Model Cars Magazine News and Discussions
Waiting with baited breath. No sign here in Knoxville, Tn. Other issues were alright, passingly interesting, and I guess just absolutely the most fun reads I've had in years. I'm beginning to jones, JUST A LITTLE MORE THAN A WHOLE LOT. Just kidding, thanks for all you guys do. -
Issue 226 is On Its Way

I guess it's OK news, but what it really is STRESS untill it gets here, then spending at least a week devouring everything from cover to cover. Oh well the sacrifices one must make. Thanks for all the hard work you guys put into getting this magazine out. -
Me too.
