What can we expect from the SE car? What makes it "Special Edition"?

I may do a SE 10R. It wont be for a little while but i may do it. These are only going to be made 1 time. I have decided on making the aluminum parts blue with alot of accent machining after anodize. I will post some pics shortly. It is by far the sweetest looking car to date i have ever seen.

It will also come with the super low pods and 1 pc crossbrace.

Thanks buddy. I know blue has been done by AE and yokomo but this will set new standards for the industry. The blue against the satin C/F really pops and with the fancy machining we are doing will really set it off.

Normally i like to have the cars look stealth like with the cool gray color. I figured this would be a little different by making a 1 time offer with a bright color and contrast to really show off the aluminum parts on the car. This will let the BMI aluminum components stand out more and show what makes the DB12R so far ahead of the competition in looks and design.

Jason, If you're doing the 10R with the same color put me down for car #1.

Great racing yesterday at the FULL THROTTLE race at Track 301 in MAryland yesterday... BMI -Non factory driver came in second. I managed a 7th place ( starting 11th and managed to get up to 6th after 2 laps... ) and had the car running reall good until I tried to take a secret passage way through a 4x4 track barrier half way through the race ... Even then the freakin hit it the car was not tweaked!!!!

I'd like to thank Mike Hearld Sr. Ken Glittler Lidz Miller and Bill Full Throttle Dolch for coming to my help when I broke me chassis and 2 front lower arms...

Race report from local club race out here lost in the middle of the pacific BMI Hawaii drivers sweep 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the A-main! My BMI with my new Tekin RS ESC and LRP 13.5 motor was just freaking on rails. Took TQ by a lap and then bettered my TQ time by adding another lap to that in the main!. Frank and Xtant had very strong drives in 2nd and 3rd in the main.
