Too late...take a look at the bodies we use in 1/12 and show me how they even come CLOSE to resembling anything in 1/1. While I was gone we've managed to bastardize "scale" here too. We've followed the EXACT same slippery slope slot cars plunged off of into the land of "thingies".

When I raced 1/12 and 1/10 pan in the late 80's and early 90's the cars looked like real cars (Nissan GTP, Jag XJ10/12, Porsche 962, etc. Now they look like charicatures. When I saw a Speed 12 body on display when I was checking out getting back into the hobby I had to ask about it--no way I figured that was a ROAR-legal body. Surprise.
