If you can find me another 24 hours everyday to work, I will do the whole Indycar grid. Seriously though, I would love to do the Indycar stuff because I went to a lot of CART races when I was younger and I am a fan.
I would do custom stuff, but it doesn't come cheap. It's the amount of time that it takes to collect all the logos, then scale and arrange them.

Beware you are only getting the lexan parts. Unless you already have a Tamiya F104 you can use all the accessories, you may end up buying another Tamiya body just to build this. There are no front or rear wings. The mirrors, side fins and barge boards look like the Tamiya McLaren. The F1 mount camera and nose fins look like 3-Racing Sakura. If you decide to just buy the Tamiya wings separate, they do not come with the screws to put them together. Those only come with the complete body set. And finally, F1 Paint Lab decal sheets are great for the liveries but do not have the base body items like the air intake sticker, side pod intake stickers, exhaust or the steering wheel. That $ 40.00 body set is going to cost over $ 100.00 before you even lay the first coat of paint.

I still have my Dahms Cart shell from the late 90's painted up in players paint scheme,
They still look cool
Favourate racetrack memory of the 80's growing up, being in the race tent with Rick Mears, Roger Penske, Paul Tracy and Emerson Fittipaldi at Gold coast indy (93 or 94, probably 93 as Rick Mears had just retired)

I got PT's autograph when Penske first signed him to test. He was walking around the Speedway with some friends during NASCAR's first pre-brickyard tire test. I think he was more surprised someone recognized him than I was to see him.

I've been into R/C for a minute nitro, electric onroad and off-road and understand a great deal about the sport and technicalities, Im trying to get into every aspect of the sport including 1/10 scale F-1 racing. My question is
1: What Turn motor is used in this class brushed and brushless?
2: Is the ESC set to locked spec mode?
3: Obviously the class is large enough for some people to have a whole fleet of cars and race everyone of them at least twice a year, Is it big enough in idaho to own one and race regularly?
4: Last but not least not many companies make these besides tamiya, 3racing, and hpi that i know of is there any other companies to choose from besides tyco lol?
