What is that NuNu kit that looks like a IMSA Vette....or something???

Like the Mazda 3 wheel truck.

That Mazda is 1/24th scale, KA model, it looks really interesting.

Oh I do like models are a little different, I'm going to have to get a few of those.

I believe the RX-7 which is the first of the "Easy Kits" which appear to be taking a generic universal adjustable wheelbase chassis angle - which will no doubt not please everyone - is based on the Jun liveried entry from the 1981 24hr of Le Mans.

Didn't Fujimi do the universal chassis thing years ago?

Yes but they had a fixed chassis and then scaled the car to fit it regardless as to the actual wheelbase, width, or length of the 1:1.

Isnt that same with Aoshima and their Skyline/Silvia chassis too ?    Isnt it the Silvia body is stretched to fit the Skyline chassis?

Comparing the Tamiya S13 to a Aoshima S13 shows that they are not even close.
