These 24 GT cars from Eddie Cheever racing sure look nice. Would make a great basis for a paint scheme.

2010 season I believe it was. Yes, that Audi R8 body from Tamiya is nice. I've airbrushed one of them. The scheme I used was way different than these RWB ones. They look great on the track!

I ran this paint scheme on the R8 2 seasons ago. There are many cool schemes for the car if you google it. Very much too bad its discontinued.

Yes and no. Tamiya has a nasty habit of discontinuing their body sets. However you can usually buy the bodies, plastic parts, decals ala carte..

Very nice.

Where are the Lamborghini bodies these days? HPI used to produce some, but they no longer do so. Tamiya used to have a Gallardo, but how come no one produces an Aventador? Seems like HPI isn't making the variety of car bodies that they once used to.

Matrixline makes a Gallardo body also. With the Huracan being run in GT3 specs in 1:1 racing and the popularity of the Blancpain Endurance Series, I'm hoping that we'll see a new Lambo body soon.

Hey Guys. We have a pretty good turn out every race night of the usgt class. I was running the pfm-10. I thought it was pretty good. I decidded to give the HPI 190mm RX7 fd3s body a go. Very surprised how it worked. So far its my favorite. A buddy is running the new camaro from protoform and seems to like it as well.
I could not decide if I wanted to do the Raybrig paint scheme or another Red Bull sceme so I did both.

Who did your paint? Excellent work!

Ian does his own. His stuff is top notch.

For those the run USGT at home or a big event, what is the usual split time between 17.5 and USGT for your best drivers.

Ex. if your best 17.5 TC driver is running 9.3 top 15 avg and your best USGT driver is running 10.1 top 15 avg the split time would be .8 sec.


Also what body is everyone finding the to be the fastest. I'm running the Cadillac ATS and it's pretty good, lot's of turn in and middle.
