I wouldn't try running it against a 917....Maybe I should buy another and repaint it so there is a pair to run.

Hey Bill,
Very cool car!!
That's quite a stretch! Nice work on the chassis.
I can see it swinging around a turn and sweeping anything near it off the track.
I think it will need some kind of wheel covers, maybe???
It definately will need a partner to run against. If just to help the collectors resale market in the future :D
I hope you plan to give us a big pic together when they're all done... it would be awesome!
Greg

Thanks guys! I just bought another of these but couldn't find decals for a real livery so it looks like I'm going to create my own.

Those are BIG cars. There is one in a local museum here, and it is "larger than life".
Good work Bill!

What a great car. The history of this team and the "Drill Sgt" is one of my favorite ones.
