Ok heres the story i got a lead of biglots gitting some kits in.

I went there and got my hands on 3 "good" kits.

I got 2 dale earnheart jr. kits for parts for some projects and then some ideas hit me.

Heres what it started off as

After i jacked the driver and engine for some projects it was bound for the junk pile.

Then i got an idea.

Hey...I don't think it's that far off from what will probably come for Nascar. I mean, look at the new car they're racing. Tuner spoilers and front spoilers....this car fits right into the grand scheme of things. Send Nascar a pic of that and they will probably pay you 6 figures a year to come with the next best thing for them! :)

I gotta agree man..

That does look cool with those rims..

A whole to twist to Nascar, A Race show..

A set of Spinners will really make some commotion

Thanks for the Heads up on BIg Lots, Ran by there today. :angry:

Evil, I'm about as big a NASCAR fan as there is, and I must say I was more than a little concerned when I saw the Title and author. I love it, in fac t I would actually PAY to see Jr run something like that @ Daytona in Feb. That looks AWESOME. Keep rockin' it bro!!!!!!!!

i may just have to talk to him

hay i might get rich fast for this idea

i'll be BALLIN LOL

I hope somebody shows this to Dale Jr. He will either be doubled up in laughter or pronounce a string of unrepeatable words. Personally I cracked up. :o I never would have thought of this. It must be Kevin's evil alter ego.

I bought this kit for parts the other day. I have no plans for it except to steal the wheels and engine out of it. Its time to think outside of the box. :lol:

Why not?? Hey, you could give this car wild hydraulics so it could lift up and go right over the car in front of it just like in the cartoons.

Just kidding, you know I kinda’ like the idea of a NASCAR satire build….think about it, we modelers always strive to make a race car, especially NASCAR models, as real as possible, I think a little light-hearted twist on it is neat. This is different, and there is nothing wrong with different in my book.

Have fun with it, just be careful that the ghost of old Bill France doesn’t come knocking one night to review this with you.

I can't believe I'm saying this but I gotta agree with the rest. That actually looks kinda cool. The wheels certainly compliment the cars lines. I'm sorta wishing you hadn't put the decals on and made it sort of a pro-tour kinda thingie. Nice work.
