Way to go HPI ! Thanks for another great lid. Jeez Andy, that one kind came out of nowhere while everybody was focused on the Nats and other things. I imagine many will see the announcement tomorrow and be just as shocked.

The new Protoform J71 body (aka JAVELIN) done for a fellow racer going to nationals, was dropped of late Tuesday night and finished late Friday night.







I forgot to mention its all paint and no decals

Nice paint Chris. I am especially impressed with the exhaust pipes painted on.

Looks good - can't wait to get it mounted up on the chassis for the race

hopefully it'll look the same after the race as it does now

Whats the announcement?
Other then the Challenger body that was announced when the truck bodies were announced.

Or was that what you are talking about?
