Precisely 20 years ago I sold my RC10 on which I competed a couple of years around 1990.
Now I have a replica of it and I'm happy with the result. This accuracy is enough for me.

Still I have to "stone wash" it a little bit on the race track to get the authentic look.
I might also have the CRP rear wing then!

Check also the picture in the start of the topic... :)

To be honest - obviously it's not a replica - after all I did not build/modify it to replicate the original red car.
It just happens to be identical. Back in time we had two identical cars in family. One is still around. That's why the picture re-creation was quite easy to arrange.

You did a great job replicating your old car. And the on track shots look awesome seeing that vintage buggy flying through the air.
