Decisions, decisions...

Dodge Viper vs BWM Z4

Holy Cow Batman!  I love the Ben Keating, Jeff Mossing Viper.  What an amazing car.   The BMW would be my choice for something to run while the Viper would be on a shelf in my house.

This should be a good series.

Yeah... the Viper, while super sexy, is an angle winder.  No one has managed to get one of those to perform well on our track.  I'm probably going to pass on an attempt to be the "one".

This will join my Le Man's Miniatures Dauer Porsche as as shelf queen.  (For now).

And... I bought a separate white kit body for the BMW to Hydrodip.  :-)  Maximize ROI.

Just an interesting note - I am looking to run the NSR Mercedes AMG GT car for the upcoming series.  As usual, I ordered the white (hard) chassis.  Now that I have the chassis I noticed that it is not as stiff as the previous white chassis' I have used.  I don't know if NSR has changed their chassis or if it feels more flexible because its such a large chassis.  Either way, I ordered a green (harder) chassis for this build.

I know the McLaren is also a large chassis so you might look at getting a green chassis if you plan on running one.

I'm glad to see a Mercedes and BMW to go with my Corvette.  We may get swamped by McLaren 720's, but at least it will look like a real race instead of a one design race.  Good Luck to us all.

I will be part of the swamp with A MCClaren 720

But at least it will be in Gundam Livery

Marc - that's pretty cool looking!   Did you print your own decals?

Mark,thanks! No I just thought the McLaren looked kinda sci-fi ish so I found some Gundam decals on Amazon. Wish I had a decent color printer:)

After a cross country trip and a few laps around New England my car finally arrived.

It’s big!

Jay - that car looks amazing.  Lot's of tunning to turn in into a winner but worth the time.  I can't wait to see it on track.
