LOL Big Smile [:D] .....ok, maybe the "Tires Must be in Contact with the Ground Most of the Time All Inclusive Motorsports Group Build".....racing riding lawnmowers included!  Just kidding-rules, title, etc. will/should be determined by Dustin (williamsfw28).

"The All Inclusive Motorsports Group Build"! Sounds great.  Will be fun to see the diversity in subjects & the history/stories behind them.

I'm in. LMM Audi R8. By that time I might have done a pre-build, but even that's not guaranteed! Wink [;)] If something started beforehand does not count, by that time I might've finished the FW19 I'm also working on, so whatever comes in it's place. Trust me, it will fit in the category, whatever I pick from my cupboard!

I'm in.  Not sure what I'll build yet (I've got the Greenwood Sebring Corvette (Monogram)) sitting in the stash but I may try to pick up an early Funny Car (Model King kit).

You can put me down for "some kind of race car". I'll find a kit and let you know before the start date.

  Ok,

  Heres the idea I came up with..................... will start this thing on or around march 15th 2007 to march 15th 2008.

How about we just make it a " If its been raced" group build. It has to be some type of auto thats been raced in competition in some way, shape or form.

Any brand of model or car make of car is ok. It just has to have been raced.

I don't think any ones Pinto they raced around there track in High school back in the day would be a car that raced....................ok?? and if you have already started something its in.

 

  So lets see whos in

I've just started working on converting the revell Enzo into an Enzo GT race car (not FXX) so I'd be in the build with that if it's allowed.

How 'bout we open this thing up to any race car (rally, F1, sports car, stock car, drag, off-road, etc.), any era, any scale, etc. and light this candle?  Maybe start March/April time frame?

Still in here. Actually started test-fitting some of the R8 - that calls for celebration! So if that doesn't fit the criteria, I'll have to start after that only.

I could get behind this GB as long as we're not limited to say F1...nothing wrong with F1 just not my area of interest.
