Comments on paint scheme please

Post by tizeye »

I've had a spare body sitting around around and have been toying with the idea of painting it in the Quaker State Colours...what do you think?...should I go ahead and finish it?

I like it.

You could do it as a replica, or add a few small custom touches to make it your own!

I'm not really into sprint cars, but it sure looks cool, go for it.

Absolutely! Do a Kinser replica. I'm gonna see him go round and round at Knoxville this summer, I can't wait.

You can't just develop one side of your brain, you have to be well rounded and any kind of racing is better than no racing. I will admit some forms are better than others. I have only been to a couple of outlaw winged sprints races but it was trully an amazing show. The last time was at Sante Fe which is long gone but Steve Kinser was the man back then and he's still going strong. Must have been 1987 or 88.

The Outlaws are one of the very, very few forms of real racing left in the world. Balls to the wall pretty much describes it. Full throttle all the way around the track, tire to tire, in tiny little cars with way too much horsepower. If they ever come near you, you should really go check them out. Anybody who loves racing will be blown away.
