  1. Awesome show a bunch of great guys just can't say this enough. I would like to thanks all the ACME guys. Youguys are AAAAAAAAAA+++++++++++++++ in my book. I was treated like I was amember of the club since the start. I could not believ it was $2 dollars to get in but then found out to get out of the show was the expensive part. Will try and be there next year for sure.
  2. Hello Everyone Well I am back to the hotel after a great time at the show. I would put this on my list as a must on your list of shows. A bunch of great guys alot of talent. Just bring alot of money that guy from stradasports can leave you broke . Got to meet alot of guys that you only hear about on these pages. Well back to the hospitality after the show .

  6. You never now what the future holds you could be 100% today and in the hole tomorrow and thats the case with most of the cottage industry that does this part-time and work fulltime it consume all of the free time they have. If they don't dedicate the time to it they have inferior product such as thick resin in order to make parts fit you have to grind about 2 pounds of the resin piece. Guys like Replicas N Miniature, Modelhaus,HRM you can buy stuff from these guys and not even think twice. The resin piece is just like the plastic counter part. As an entrepreneur myself I see 2 things wrong already with your business and I mean this in a positive way one is you have a partner that is a friend and that could lead to enemies and the other is that you will answer your e-mail ina weeks time. This to me means you don't have the time to dedicate to this. the best thing for people that are PT in the resin business is to sell the product in evil bay sell as you have the product available this will keep you stressed free and as you grow the business and your product line than you expand out. I mean this in no offence. Sometimes positive criticism is better than nothing at all even if it looks negative. Wish you the best in your new adventure we need the cottage industry alive and kicking without you guys this hobby would have been on the waste side along time ago. My 2 cents Ariel

  17. Yes they had a 14 in wheel in the celica supras. But this wheel is suppose to represent a 13" wheel that was an aftermarket wheel that was called Baby Supras. for the race track alot of guys used the 14" wheel in the front that was a narrow wheel from the celica supra and the 13" in the rear a wider wheel with a slick. I wheel see if i can post some pics. Ariel
