How lucky is this guy, it gets to drive 220 MPH on the newly opened toll road in Texas where the speed limit is 85 MPH, its was done to test the radar and toll tag system's http://autos.yahoo.com/blogs/motoramic/hennessey-tuned-camaro-zl1-hits-203-mph-texas-141224467.html

Have to agree as well Is ebay perfect?,oh heck no, but is anything else in life these days perfect?, ebay is one of those things that you have to take the good with the bad, or just dont be a seller on there if its that big of deal for you. Take it or leave it, but ebay is the biggest, and best(for items being sold) out there

Or is it a application problem that is causing it?, meaning putting to much on at time?

For some reason I am on this kick, or push to get all the DOT cars done, so I am on my way to making that happen. I have four more to do , so I am working three of them at the moment. I still need to get the decal sheets for the #51 Exxon 46 City and Superflo scheme's , I will be using Powerslide decals for the Exxon and Superflo, winscals for the City Chevy decals, and kit decals for the Hardeez. I was already to start paint the City Chevy, but learned real fast that the florescent yellow was not going to even be close, so with not being able to find neon green and yellow, that lead me to placing an order for the correct colors from Model Car World Finishes, its not a cheap order either. So as of right now, I have three Luminas almost done, and they are going to be the Hardeez/superflo/city cars. I have one more Lumina kit one the way that was given to me by Futurabat (thank you) I am still trying to decide what color I want to use for the Hardeez car, in the movie it looks yellow, but everyone paints it orange So the bench looks the Hendrick Motorsports shop in the 90s now

I already have a order placed for a few of these, well me and half the guys at the club

Its nice see a truck that isnt slammed to the ground for a change

It can be built with normal camber settings or off set camber settings( box art) Both the version have the adjustable ride height and camber settings , the only difference between the two kits are The wheels The Box art The color of the parts molded in

Shouldnt be to hard, just have to remove the inner wheel wells from the lower engine piece, and maybe trim it to fit in between the wheel wells on the Aoshima

Mark, if you want the engine, I would get the Tamiya kit, you could add an engine to this one, but you would have to add the under hood detail that is missing as well. I had a plan to put a the Supra motor from the AMT Supra kit, but dont think its going to work.

I am pretty sure there is not

Yes just like that , what I was getting at is , two different forms of resource's to move the car, yes its in smaller forms. Or maybe I am just off my rocker

Just sit back and read that, dont think about it, just read it, tell me how dumb that sounds, not what Harry said, but what he is explaining , how the Volt works

That just adding salt on an open wound , having to go buy a new kit because you messed up so bad

Nice

It happens to all of us Drew, if it makes you feel better, I have been trying to get a Camaro body painted for the past month, its been stripped twice now, heres hoping third time is the charm

I knew about that, I did not know there was the option for report shipping

Where is that option at?, I have noticed lately the trend on model kits is shipping around $11 and up, you know its bad when you can get kits shipped cheaper from other country then in the states For instance, getting a kit shipped from Japan cost $12-14, I am seeing a ton of US sellers charging that or more to ship kits with in the US , thats is just ridiculous

Nice job

For your NASCAR needs, I suggest you become a member here http://www.randyayersmodeling.com/modelingforum/index.php There are P/E sets for NASCAR , Model car garage was one that made some http://www.modelcargarage.com/store/pc/viewCategories.asp?pageStyle=p&ProdSort=0&page=5&idCategory=15&viewAll=yes

There are some resin bodys of other makes, but there not the 2011-2012 style with the new nose, and I think some you would have to make your own spoiler as well There is somebody on ebay selling 2011-12 bodys, but not sure how good the castings are Now for the bad news, I know almost all of the resin COT bodys are 1/24th, and the AMT COT chassis being 1/25th http://public.fotki.com/raceminded/mikesscalespeedshop/ http://public.fotki.com/raceminded/smhresins/

I saw one of those kits, well I saw a few of them, going for $40, I almost bought one, but will all the bad things I have heard about them, I passed, I will wait tell there are selling a little cheaper

That is almost becoming the case, you know sellers are trying to make money on shipping when their shipping charge is more then having a kit shipped from Japan or somewhere overseas .

Thats good and all, but I wanted to buy a set of his mopar police wheels , this was last year, never ever heard back, I have moved on from wanting to do business with him, if I cant get a email back from him asking about his product, I am not going to send him money. Please dont take this as bashing him, its not, just being honest

So you can feel good about pretending to be doing something good for the environment
