Hi, Thank you once again I don’t really remember how long it took me to build the Roaring Papaya... For the Eagle, I started the kit in April to May, then restart in November till mid November. About two and a half months. Time to build a model depends on a lot of things... I stop building the Eagle for example because we were allowed to fly again after a long period of stop due to COVID. For the 1/12 312F1, it took me 2 years with long period without doing anything and some « Rushes » extremely productive: I finished the kit in 1.5 month from half built to finish including riveting and painting. it’s a kind of mathematical equation with multiple variables ... of which one of the main ones remains the motivation, the imagination ... The next one is a ... Lotus. But not a 49... A real beauty, not very successful but just Beautiful!... with an engine with a very particular architecture ... Pascal If you're building an H16, this I have to see!!!

I was there. Watkins Glen 1966. Jim Clark winning in the most beautiful combine harvester ever built.

Pascal, Just about every British racing team back in the days pre-sponsor was in some form painted in BRG. How about another hint or two?

Pascal, As soon as I saw that magnificent BRM H16, I just knew that the car was the Lotus 43. The build in your hands will certainly be spectacular for sure.
Paul, Damn, I missed you at the Glen by 1 year.

Watkins in 64 and 66. St Jovite 68. Mosport every GP ever held. Detroit 85 was my last one. My main regret is I never made it to Montreal, shame, I love the city.
Now I just watch on TV.
