Wowee.  I'm a pretty adept circle track modeler myself and I've been on the topside working with the Doog and Squeakie and Wingform on a few things, see the 64 Petty Plymouth Wingform just finished, Ive got a few of mine posted in there too, but, your models are abolutely fantastic!  You truly know your subject, where did you learn, what are your references?  I know there's much for me to learn there too.  Great idea too on utilizing the smaller AMT ERTL Winston cup chassis as your bases, they're pretty nice and adapt well to sportsman style cars.

But hey, theres a lot here that's way beyond me.  Tell us more.

thanks for putting these up.

I can't believe the amount of detail you've put into this, Reuhkapelti!! All those little wires and lines inside, on the engine, and under the chassis--simply a masterpiece! And the paint and decallling, all just perfect!

"Best of SHow" for sure! Congratulations in advance! Smile,Wink, & Grin [swg]

CLICK to view larger image of my RacingPontiac! Originally it's a 1966 Pontiac GTO

(3in1 AMT 1:25 #6593) with two different roofs.

The chassis comes from Pontiac nascar

driven by R.Petty (STP Pontiac Grand Prix -90 AMT #6728 1:25).

The only aftermarket item is the distributor.

The other racer is a Ford Fairlane -66 built look like it's been on the track a few times.
