      Beware of the attack of the Lola T70's. On a bright sunny day everyone in attendance will need good sunglasses.

          Thunderslot will probably the car of choice for a lot of racers, and most of those will be the T70 Spyders. There are also the Mclarens, But my Elva probably won't go any farther than our local tracks, I enjoy it so.

            I'll probably send either a T-70 or a McLaren

          While I had intended on entering a Lotus 23C, but the one I built last competed in 1965. So I decided I would go back to a Ferrari 350. This will be all new for 2021 as I scratchbuilt a new body and chassis. Wider and faster is the result so far.

            Looks good and fast. I might be interested in your body if you sell them.

          I added another 350 to the mix

            My 1974 Sting GW1 is almost ready to paint. The Sting is the last "true" CanAm car built and can still be seen in vintage races. This is a BIG car- same size as the Penske 917-30. Big wing, big motor, big noise. The slot body is made from sheet plastic but with the necessary re-enforcements, its not very light.
            At the moment I haven't got a plan for the chassis but I'll figger'it out

              wow, great modeling sir, having done this type build with the Chaparral 2j. I understand the efforts. This looks to be a bit more intense then the chappy.

            Wow that is so cool and you have serious talent!
            Can you please give the specs wheelbase / width.

                You need to send that to the 3D guys they could scan it and then print you some that might be a bit lighter.

                  I finished up my Ferrari 612 File and printed out a possible entry into this proxy.
