Nice subject matter for a slot model. Ellen Lohr, still the only female to win a DTM race (I think she beat Rosberg).

The BRIDGESTONE tire print is curious. Now that is the sort of thing that will bother me for several days.

And another thing: the driver. Is that a man dressed up as Ellen or is it really a figure of Ellen? Again, that's the sort of thing that will bother me on several levels.

The heated rear window is a nice detail.

Jules, that is her helmet colors. Whether she is endowed remains to be seen. As for the Bridgestone tires, they were their sponsors, but with different wheels that had the Bridgestone emblem on them.

Scott, it's the upsidey down Bridgestone print on the tires I was referring to. Unless the real car had 'Bridgestone' printed that way. I'm really not sure. Just to me, looks strange.

Well it's a prototype, still plenty of time to iron out the discrepancies.
