hard to say - they were all beautiful to look at - the old F1 cars like the 250F and the 375 were just awesome . But all the 250 series sports cars had to the high light. I took over 200 photos in there so its been wittled down a bit ! I also have a soft spot for the F430 - as I drove a Challenge race car that day - so pretty memorable!

Some pics from when I was at there October last year. The F430 Challenge I drove 5 laps in at Autodromo di Modena - courtesy of Pit Lane Red Passion. http://www.pitlaneredpassion.com/eng/test-drive-ferrari

nice paint job on the TZ2. I have been after a Tipo 33 Periscopio for a while - where did you get the body from ??Love it - looks great. Ok found the body - Cursa Models of Spain. thanks.

Just been reading about the WSC 95 in a magazine - which started life as a Jag XJR 14 by TWR , then sold to Porsche ( 2 units) who took the top off it & developed the tub to run at Daytona & Sebring (which they never did) then went on to win Le Mans in the hands of Joest Racing 2 years running. Keen to see pictures of the modifications - google cam back with an article (below ) called `The strange orphan story of the most successful Le Mans ever` http://blackflag.jalopnik.com/the-strange-orphan-story-of-the-most-successful-le-mans-1677120408 The car was actually sold to Mazda as well with a 3.5l v10 named the MXR 01. Then the pics of the MAZDA in Renown livery looked very much like the 787B , which when pics of both viewed it is obvious it looks more like a XJR 14 than a 787B. Very interesting. The 787B above

Just did a Ninco Lightning Megane last weekend with metho - about 1.5hrs in total with a medium toothbrush. Let it soak 15-20mins then scrub repeat until all paint gone. Actually the last couple of Nincos I have done has been metho and a couple of Scaleys.

Ninco are releasing the Renault RS01 this year - looking forward to this one.

look great ! nice paint job

I still have 2 charger bodies to start - yours looks brilliant!!

as usual nice work . just some plain MM numbers I reckon.

nice colour & its a Good looking car, the colour suits it.

not much of a scratch builder , more of a painter and modifier, kit/resin type builder. Would love to be able to make my own chassis that actually worked!!! Really enjoy reading any build thread, especially seeing how other build those brass works of wonder!

Hahaha its not that bad

Where did you get the Porsche 718 RSK body from?? Would love to get my hands on one

Nissan back in the World Endurance Championship LMP1 with the GT-R LM NISMO. Front engined, Front wheel drive , twin turbo 3.0 V6 , irregular wheel widths front to rear - front 14inch - rear- 9 inch - looks a little weird compared to the other major players with the longer front end. Also a different aerodynamic idea of ducting the air through the car from front splitter to above the diffuser at the rear. I hope it does well,it looks good and Nissan have the history of a Le Mans winning car to bring the fight to the big boys . Apparently 550 BHP front drive from the V6, and a KERS system that will the deploy the generated/stored energy to the rear wheels upon acceleration - 700 BHP at the rear wheels claimed.!!! Nissan - A hero comes home.

I have run some with cut & polish paste on the gears on a stand for about 10min - clean gears, lube, then do laps. I like the lighter trick - have to try that one.

Have only started watching this years I have recorded. The big news was the newly developed Peugeot Dakar vehicle.. Named the 2008 DKR - Red Bull Sponsorship and a dream team for this race. Stephane Peterhansel - 6 x winner - Motorbike & 5 x Winner - Car Cyril Depres - 5 x Winner - Motorbike Carlos Sainz - 1 x Winner - Car - 2 x WRC titles I really hope these guys can bring one of the cars home - regardless of position.

Thanks for the tip Mark.

A few good Carrera cars with free post with those guys, Just grabbed the Merc Streamliner - bargain!!!

Ken Box is cooler!!

I have a DS pocket checker for RPM , I have also used guitar tuning software to do the same thing. The Pocket checker was a swap - not worth the full price asked for them.

thanks guys

Sorry John - what is Pre-wing??? You mean Pre-wing F1 cars?
