Dale,

Thanks for including headlights and grills in your bodies in the future. Having said that, is it possible to include one set of headlights that are realistic in nature for those folks that perfer them. Then include a second set of headlights that are more like the style that you see from the professional painters. More like "angry eyes" if you will

I guess I perfer the headlights that are less like real headlights. I really like the look of your bodies in general, and best of all they work great too! But you already knew that.

Thanks,

Steve

The looooong overdue WGT body is shaping up quite nicely. All I can say is that
Gianna will be at the Snowbirds - and looking pretty svelte.

So many WGR racers are ticked at me - I gotta make this something special - if i'm able. I'm giving it all I got.

Yes Sir, things are great! Just getting back into racing. I got a new RC10R5.1 a few weeks ago and Santa just dropped of a RC12R5.2.

Getting ready for the Snowbirds!

corallyman;
Your point re: double headlight sets well noted. Thanks.

We're actually on the same wavelength - kinda. The new WGT already has the artwork already finished for 2 sets of headlites as well as 2 tailite sets - for 2 completely different looks.

Sorry man. I asked them to correct the delivery status on out website store. But I realize that doesn't really help you in any way. Send me a PM and I'll try to make things right for you.

Already ordered some for the store, (and probably one for me too). Looks too good not to try.

Hi Dale, I am just curious. Is TR-12 "inspired by" Toyota TS030 ?

I am just wondering which LMP car is TR-12 "inspired by".

Yes that was my guess also, and then Dale posted up pics of said car on a previous page which I'd take as proof!!
