Having a little fun with a blem body I didn't want to toss. Thought I would make a beach racer out of it. Great car for guests to slam around.

I agree. Not sure why, I just think it's one of the best looking slot cars ever made. :)

You are a great craftsman.

Well, Thank you gents! It really is a rough Body, and the detail work is hurried at best, (try painting bumpers with a four year old leaning on the table!) But some how I like it too? maybe its the overall feel of the car. Cant wait to see one of the Masters do up one of these.

That is just plain cool!
I still can't get over how quick you guys go from a pile of parts to a car ready to drift through a corner!
Kudos sir! :D
(Now how about a video of it in action?) :)

Are You Guy's saying these things have to run too??? I had no idea!
Seriously, I have a new video camera that I got for Christmas, and as soon as I get tech help with it, I will be doing that very thing. I have a great video editing program that even I can use!
