Just saying hello. I'm a retired lunatic in Canada looking for people who actually know what they're doing.
Oh, I only build F1 cars, 1/20th scale. (I have a 1/12th Honda still in a box, haven't got the guts to mess it up yet). And I live in the woods, just to make getting stuff more entertaining.
regards
Paul

Hi Paul, Welcome to our little global group! I guess living in the woods is probably as challenging as living in the desert along the Colorado River. I think moving out of Los Angeles to our little town has taught me to be more self sufficient, work with in the weather , plan ahead, learn the best places to order from and the value of scratchbuilding.! I think you will find a few guys who actually build and really do know a thing or two here. Best group of modelers on the web in my book!! Welcome Chris Hale

Is it the Honda RA272? If you are ever looking to sell it, I am avid collector of 1/12th kits. Just bought the Matra the other day and have a line on a 312T3. Welcome aboard!

Hi
No, it's the RA273, the Surtees car. There's a 272 on E-Bay but it's already built. Good luck, and if you find 2 of them let me know!
(If I ever got good enough - not likely - I've thought about taking a 272 and modifying it to a 271 - that would be unique).

Paul, Welcome to our little group, you're really going to like it here. I'm sure that you've checked out the layout of the list. Chris has set it up so that every type of racing has a proper home, and no one feels like their build is a 2nd class citizen.
I'm also a 1/20 scale F1 builder, as well as Indy Cars, sports cars of all types, and the list just seems to keep on growing. Even Nascar has once again tweaked my interest.

Welcome to the forum, Paul 2whl aka Paul Nothing to do with models, but way back when dinosaurs roamed I used to race 250 and 350 Ducati's. And no, I wasn't any good.
