MP 4/6 Carbon Tub

I have looked at all pictures I can find of the McLaren MP 4 cars.  The Cockpit tub looks like it has a linear gold pattern in the Carbon fiber.  The best photos I have found are of the MP 4/5.  In some photos the tub looks monocromatic but in others it has a distinct pattern.  I believe this is from how the light hits the carbon.

Clueless....

Another sign Bernie is truly out of touch...

Yeah, right.

No More R-M Nascar kits.

To Our Loyal Customers:

Over the years we have been pleased to provide you with the finest NASCAR plastic model kits featuring the most popular drivers. Regrettably however, over the last several years we have faced increasing licensing costs that are greater than our increase in sales. Despite our best efforts to secure reasonable licensing terms for NASCAR model kits in general, and the Car of Tomorrow in particular, we have been unable to develop a program that allows us to market the product at a viable price point. Consequently, we will not be issuing a kit on the Car of Tomorrow and, in fact, will be exiting the NASCAR business altogether. We will discontinue all sales of NASCAR plastic kits by February 28, 2009.
