This is a Hasegawa kit, it comes with the decals to build the 1st, and 2nd place cars. 1st place was orange and white, 2nd place was grey and white. I could't find any photos other than the box for reference, so I painted it silver, but the instructions say battleship grey... I've seen several 1st place cars, but never the 2nd, so I decided to try it.
The kit basically gives you a stock car body you have to modify, which includes drilling and fitting the gas cap, shaving emblems, cutting out the wheel arches to fit the flares, modifying the bumpers, etc. I had to re-do a few things because I missed some call outs on the instruction sheet. More my fault then theirs, and the instructions are multi-lingual. This is also my first time using tire decals, kit supplied
Oh, the days of 3-point roll cages.
Adding a driver adds an element of fun and realism frustration and aggravation to any build! Driver is from the Fujimi Drivers set and took some work to fit satisfactory.
