1st Racecar... 90% Finished...

Well first racecar I put vinyl on.

I quickly snapped these shots of my brother's racecar. I just finsihed making the vinyl for it... well 90% done... there's a few little things i gotta add, ie: various accent points and the roof number etc etc.

Anyways... these shots are nothing special...mostly shot in ISO 1600 and 3200 handheld no flash...thus the grainyness....(for a technical standpoint on why the photos are sh*tty.)

This is the first time I've done this....

Also my brother bought all this **** a few years ago... hes modified the chassis to a point where it would have been easier to make a new one...

He specifically builds these chassis for people now...I think hes built 4 so far... not 100% sure...

I think 1/2 way through the season we're gonna redo it... however... I'm going to try and convince my brother to do one side in reverse...hahaa kinda like a drifto car...

technically they do "power slide" thru the corners.... I think it would be sweet because most cars on the track look boring...
