Well, this is impressive. From cutting/adjusting and recasting the body, to the BMF work.

Looks fantastic.

Beautiful body Dave! Not only does that orange look fast as Jon said, but in a field of race cars, you aren't apt to be in a group of other orange ones. This should make it easier to drive & to pick it up when out on the track.
