Hope I am not reposting a current thread, but I have not seen one recently. I have noticed in the past that other people will try and build a whole model during a race on tv.

Well the 24 Le Mans is next Saturday and I wanted to try this. Since I have wanted to build a C-6R for a while, I am going to attempt a complete build before the race is over.

So, I picked up the 2005 season winning Revell C6-R #64 Alms winner, driven by Olivier Beretta and Gavin, Magnussen in the GT1 class.

Here are the pics from Corvette racing's site:

I cannot say if I can complete this, but I really want to try and do it!!! I would think in 24 hours I could accomplish this fairly simple build.

I am planning on stripping the wheels and chrome the second the race starts as well as starting the body. I want to have my first coat of primer on in less then an hour. From there, we shall see.

So, does anyone else seem interested in joining me next weekend for a Le Mans build? I think it would be fun for us all to get involved?! I know that there are other entries from Ferrari, Aston Martin, Porsche, etc.... Those may be harder to come by in a week. Who knows, Maybe a slew of Vette's for the forum?

Thanks for looking.

Me build a model in 24 hours? Maybe 48 hours. But 24? I'm too old to stay-up past 1:00 a.m. I need my beauty sleep (lots of it). :D I wish you luck in your effort, and hope to see you post pics of your speedy corvette build
