Re: FULL CARBON FIBRE VERSION
My personal opinion is the mostly plastic, budget/entry level cars that didn't get much aftermarket attention would make for the most interesting full carbon builds. With the pro-level cars you typically already get carbon/graphite, and aluminum materials so remaking the parts in CF isn't a big jump in quality.
A lot of Tamiya cars for example would be a good starting point for a full CF build.

Re: FULL CARBON FIBRE VERSION
True what you say, Phin, but doing your own carbon fiber parts just screams pimpin'.

Personally I like to see vintage cars stay mostly period correct but other than that I am a big fan of carbon If it has a practical application I say bring it on.

Re: FULL CARBON FIBRE VERSION
You make very nice parts Jerzi, but I'd like to see some of your own design aside of the copies of the originals.
