I am also doing complete cars, built to order, any level of hop ups you could want.
I have three cars on the bench right now that will be photographed for the website, but will also be for sale as well, with a 4th and 5th to follow.The online store is admittedly a bit crude, but I wanted to get something up and running. The important thing is that anyone can populate a cart, and checkout after they are done shopping.
I am trying to figure out how to present the decal sheets in the store, hopefully that will be resolved in the next week or so.

All seem to be made of the same fibreglass material & the same thickness.
So one could just get a Kit T-Plate and dremel out the U slot to convert it to the High Traction Plate, yes?

I also found when sanding the Kit plate black finish seemed to be layered throughout the plate (different material I think). So in summary, the modified t-plate was better then standard but the High Traction I think is still the best for grip.

F1 2011 teams on the catwalk
Some more Ferrari, Lotus and the Mexican driver/sponsor Sabuer.
It's good to be back in F1, Pedro Rodriguez drove last time for Ferrari and other teams back in 1968. Incredible that we still don't have a U.S. car!
I am glad to see that ugly long air intake gone (looked like a sailfish!)
Nice
Adelante Scuderia Sabuer Telmex
Lotus cool
Cheers!

N = Medium
W = Soft

No need to, just run them. I clean them with simple green after each run some folks like to do it with Goo-gone.
