"What-if?" Unlimited racing planes and fighters.

[CSMO]

Some of these airplanes are modified with different propellers and some are stock. All have been brush-painted in bright civilian colors that are typical of racing planes as well as cars. The decals are airplane markings and from AMT kit sheets and aftermarket car sheets by Gofer Decals. They are inspired by the real race planes that flew in the National Air Races in Cleveland, Ohio during the late 1940s and the modern Unlimited Air Races at Reno, Nevada.

The military planes all have contra-rotating propeller units replacing the stock propellers. It gives them a totally different look of being even more powerful than their stock real-world big brothers

Adios, Larry the Airplane Guy.

Pretty cool collection.  I like your base, too.

These are all great, I especially like the Corsair. I like your line of thinking. I too have had this idea, it sure is fun turning war planes into race planes. I will post up my race Spitfire.
