my supra is faster than Dave's....

....in life size form! it's a tamiya 1:24 scale castrol supra JGTC racer. i finally finished this thing after working on it on/off for about a year and a half, when i wasn't working on other models. it looks simple but there are probably around 120 parts that had to be assembled. the thing is, all the assembling in the world can't prepare you for those blasted decals....every time i though i was almost done id look at the decal sheet and realize i had about 40 more to go. but it was fun nonetheless, and yes, i do push it around my desk and make engine sounds 8)

now all i need to do is figure out how to make a 1:24 scale MM sticker for the window....

I built an M3 GTR model like that two years ago, but it would be really slow becasue it only has two wheels. Anyway, that looks really good, and it looks like something I would never have the patience to do.

That's an excellent job Scott, I've always loved the look of that car and I can only imagine how much of a PITA it was to do that and get it right. Think you can bring it to a meeting and let us see it in person?
