  1. I never said it did change, but what I know is that NASCAR has changed the way licensing is done, I dont know all the details about yet, or dont remember
  2. The reason why Revell stopped doing NASCAR kits was due to the licensing cost.
  3. Only in the Sprint Cup series, every other series still use's carbs
  4. To be honest, I think the only thing that is different for the current cars, is just the engine, there are some styling difference in the nose of the cars, the rear quarter windows are different, but thats about it. Yep, just like Harry Hogg said ,"there aint nothing stock about a stock car"
  5. No,you are mistaking NASCAR with what was the IROC series, yes, in many area's of a NASCAR race car are the same, there are some things that are different .
  6. Here is the FT 86 from Tamyia, its the same kit as the Subaru version, here is whats in the box
  7. I understand the cars on track are nothing like the cars in the showroom, Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Toyota still have to make the engine block that the teams use . Now 2013, things are going to change, the new cars are going to look a lot closer to the showroom counter parts, which is something the manufacturer's have been lobbing even more so since the COT came out in 2007. So next year the cars on track will look like whats at the dealer, so that connection will be a lot closet then it is now.
  8. Been working on the chassis, what a pain, this is a very ill fitting kit, and it didnt help that I lowered the ride height.
  9. Because the manufacturers still do have some connection to the cars, it may not be like it was 30 years ago, but its still there.
  10. This makes me a little happy, on Revells Face Book page, they have a pole going asking if we would like or build new NASCAR glue kits. Here is the link http://www.facebook.com/RevellUSA

  14. At 6:52 pm its still 106, its a little warm here
  15. I see it now that you said something
  16. You do what I do half the time, forgot the side mirror inserts
  17. I got a sorry we missed you noticed for my order from Hong Kong today
  18. Wheels look great, I am going to have to try that, what type of pen did you use?
  19. Been working on the chassis, and here it is on its wheels, not finished with the chassis, but getting there, I am adding the roll bars that were left out. I still need to paint the exhaust pipes, just on there for the pic
