The F1M Forums

I'm in the minority opinion here, but I love this! I think it looks great! Breaks up the monotony in my view, and those are some great colors. I aren't saying I don't like it. The colours and design are good. The look of the car is hideous but that's just the current design and can't be helped but ...

Getting a bit bored of all this tribute stuff now. Seems more like it's been hijacked as a marketing tool than a genuine tribute.

Great lesson in not giving up. You've made a tidy job of this kit even with the decal issues. Nice work.

Yeah it's checkered flag. My friend in the states has just finished building one. Done a fantastic job on it too.

I remember in the 1988 catalogue they showcased the Lotus 99T racing against an FW11 that had been converted into FW11B spec, livery and tech detail. I desperately wanted that to be released.
Took me ten years before I found a transkit for it.

That's true, I miss those days.

I always thought it was an odd choice too. Why not go for Williams as they made the FW13B that year, remember when Tamiya made three F1 kits from one year. The Benetton decals are useful tho and the Nannini helmet decals would transfer to the B188. The race suit decals would be different tho.

Yeah, it's back. Hurrah.
Liking what I see.

Flemming, that almost coincides with my time of going. I was 1999-2011. The first year I attended, saw Mikas McLaren MP4/8 with bodywork off and accessible for photos. I couldn't believe it was possible as a general admission attendee. That was the joy of the event, the public were trusted to be all...

I was hoping to try and get there this year, haven't been since 2011, but things haven't worked out right. Would have been great to meet up with yourselves and any other members.
Have a great weekend and please update us on it.
