Here we go...

My entry is a RC10L Toyota GTP TRD themed car. It all started out by a Reg (charlie dont surf) giving me a set of custom made wheels by Jake... I think as I somewhat remember it. Since I had custom wheels, why stop there. Durb69, Derrick, made me a one off nerf bars and a gear cover . I tried to have all of the parts that I could to be fiberglass and polish aluminum and white, which I think turned out amazing. I would like to thank all of the people involved on this forum who helped make this car a real thing.

Here is a Yokomo Worlds 93 with full COMCOM carbon conversion and a Masami inspired livery. Rear wing is a carbon molded prototype I obtained from Fibre-Lyte and that was never released to the public as it required too much hand work.

Here's a very special Schumacher Cougar, with a Eurocomposite CWF tub chassis, Shock Towers, Trinity shocks and a a few other gizmos

I've had this one for a few years now, but I don't think I've ever presented it... pics could be better, but happy to participate again this month


Good luck to everyone!

Pan cars are not it my ballpark but that one is so simple , tidy and clean that it stole my vote , the hydro dipped shell is stunning on the RC10 and it was hard not to vote for a Dogfighter either but it had to happen .
