The first two cars have arrived from New Zealand; a Costin Lister Jaguar from John (munter) and a Kurtis Kraft 500X from his mate, Viv; both on custom chassis. I have to say that I have never seen packing like this before; looks totally professional. if these cars run half as well as the packing job that they arrived in, then the race is definitely going to be for third place. And did I mention the modeling skills.........… Wow! Pics to follow early next week.

Another arrival yesterday; this one from Dan (BARC 1); a Lotus 30 in standard BARC livery. Nice car!
Pics of the first three in-house racers later tonight.

Here are the first three cars to arrive.
First in were the cars that are traveling the greatest distance in the mail; munter's and Viv's, all the way from New Zealand.
1. Viv - Kurtis Kraft 500X:

2. Munter - Costin Lister Jaguar:

Next was BARC 1's car from Grande Prairie, Canada.
3. BARC 1 - Lotus 30:

Three very nice looking cars!
Note: Gentlemen - don't forget your roll bars - this is SCCA, not FIA; thanks.

So, as I said, we now have 4 more cars in house.
I have to say that the modeling in some of these cars is really nice; making the modeling aspect of this proxy series almost as important as the tuning aspect, which is great to see. So, without any further adieu, here they are:
1. Porsche 904 - Tony ("the other Tony") (BrumosRSR):

2. Corvette C2 SR2 - Chris (chrisguyw):

3. Lotus 30 - Chas (Charlesx):

4. Chaparral Mk 1 - Dennis (gascarnut):

So, that's 7 in the house, so far. Only about 30 left to go...…………. ;)

There's a Cheetah in the house...………..!
Another entry from down under, this one is Dave's (drw21) model of the classic big bore, front motor hot-box racer:

Also on a custom piano wire/brass chassis with the 25k slimcan motor.
The field is shaping up very nicely! The B Modified and C Modified classes are going to keep everybody on the edge until this series completes.

Mine will be in the mail tomorrow. I encountered a bit of bother.
Blonde hair and other chesty mods which for some strange reason i just couldn't do.
The decals I ordered have not arrived so unfortunately the striping will be wrong.
But Donna Mae will be onnher way. And as her competitors said the car is pink and goes like stink. I sure hope the model does her name proud, but I'm not holding my breath

I should have mine in the mail Friday, ran into a few issue that stole build time, but made progress last night.
