Kit Airfix 1/32 Paints Tamiya X4 Blue X2 White, X18 Semi Gloss Black XF1 Flat Black X1 Gloss Black XF85 Rubber Black Windsor& Newton Gloss UV Clear Alclad Clear Red Decal Softeners Mr Mark Softener & Set Airbrush Harder and Steenbeck Infinity CRPlus and Spraymaster Built over about a 3 week period some nice interior details especially the rollcage, nice easy assembly with clear instructions, the decals are really nice but would be a challenge for a novice modeler so I think the skill level is a bit ambitious. __________________ RossiM1

we often forget that "stock" cars are modified to face grueling tracks and courses--this is cool. Decal obstacle course! __________________ Ted pinterest pg. of scale models/dioramas: http://www.pinterest.com/intrstinpintrst/awesome-scale-models/

Ted, John, and Ken thanks for the comments guys, John , Airfix do a nice range of 1/32 competition cars, they do 2 versions of the WRC Fiesta, the New BMW Mini WRC car, and they do the XJR GTC Jaguar from the WEC series, and Petit Le Mans one in Factory colours the other in the classic Gulf Oils colours. https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=airfix+1%2f32+jaguars&view=detailv2&&id=00BE002DCF859BD1A7013544598901A231413369&selectedIndex=46&ccid=Ya6M%2fMln&simid=607999548623160132&thid=OIP.M61ae8cfcc96768acea783a465e06db50o0 __________________ RossiM1
