Aerodynamists are enemies of modelers


To be honest, I do not like the F1 front wings of this era. It is a pain in the butt to get the upper wing element look right.

Counting down to the end of 2014, I practically will only have 1 more weekend at the workbench. Still have a whole bunch of things to test fit before spraying on the surfacer.

Last weekend, I went home for Thanksgiving. And one of the Thanksgiving tradition of mine is to go to the San Francisco Auto Show to look at cars. There is nothing really special about the road cars, as the San Francisco show is not really major ones like New York, Detroit or LA. But they always have a section where they show some race cars. Here's Jimmy Vasser's 2006 PKV Racing Champ Car.



Another interesting car is this "up-side-down" Camero that is built to look like the car is flipped up-side-down
