1- The Salvinos Dallara kits will be 1/20th as they feel they will sell better in that scale internationally. 2- There will be a Honda engined and Chevrolet engined version. Only 1 engine per kit. 3- There will be two aero screens molded so that they can back date the kit to produce Helio Castroneve...

I have had very good luck writing to Tamiya and requesting replacement parts. In the case of this kit, it has been re-issued fairly recently (Yardley Version) so parts that are in common between the two kits may be available. In working with Japanese companies in the past, I have found that it pays ...

When I saw the commercial, I thought of the Garth Stein novel "The Art of Racing In the Rain".



Perhaps it was just me; great book though.

The Vintage Racecar Magazine Feb 2015 edition has an interesting and informative article on the Leyton House team and the development of the CG901 if anyone would care to pick up a copy. https://scontent-b-ord.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xap1/v/t1.0-9/10922598_589031424565397_3399818635285388715_n.jpg?oh=5...

Excellent and certainly interesting news. Thanks for sharing.

It's such a shame that racing cars don't have the following that sci-fi and fantasy apparently have.

It is a shame that on some of the trees parts not to be used in the version shown on the box have been blocked off or removed.

In the past Fujimi have included extra parts and they have been welcome additions to the spare parts box to supplement other builds.

I finally have examples of these kits in hand. I cannot, after a cursory examination, see where correcting the ride height would be all that difficult. Granted- we shouldn't have to do corrective work to a kit in this day and age, but it is required some times and it's not a shock to me when I have ...
