Did he win?  Nice job on the weathering, must have been a short track!

Exactly.No room ,just a lot of banging around the track.

Nice build; the post-race weathering effects are quite good! Two questions- 1) How did you create that dent on the passenger-side door/fender?  2) Does this build have mis-matched tires, and if so, is that part of the post-race effects?

Thanks,I never build NASCAR.Its usually NHRA .But this was in a pile in one of my boxes.As far as the dent,I used a lighter for a few seconds, then used something to push it in.And don’t use your hand,cause it’s obviously gonna be quite hot.Then as far as the tires, they’re honestly whatever I could find, to try and match.Not so good.

Thank you guys
