CAR CONSTRUCTION
@knb112 I have completed the alternate #7 V8 Racer, in blue and yellow, complete with driver.
Primary sponsors are ENGyne and Car Glass.
Secondary sponsors are many: Zenzora, eRav, Hevado, Yubihama, GIR BOX, and DarX. Nearly ALL of the LEGO car part companies they made up.
Parts are from sets 8124 and 8151.
I chose a blue and yellow fire suit, an open face blue helmet and chose a female driver with light blue sunglasses.
I also have extra parts that either didn’t fit into the final design or are extras you can use to expand the set.
The primary way to see the car is to attend the Q2 meeting tomorrow, as it’s already 5:30 in the morning, and I need to take a 4 hour sleep to immediately get up and get ready to be picked up and go there, and I’m too tired to take pics now.

Hey Rich – I would love a car. Great talking to you today at the meeting.
Thanks!
A pleasure.
CAR CONSTRUCTION
I’ve decided that Marcella gets the alternate #2, and this car is a LOT more complete than I remember it, at about 80%. I should be able to finish it today.
This car is in a very appealing color combination of black, lime and bits of white and red. Parts from sets 8192, 8133, 8119 and 8154.
Primary sponsors are R Power, SuperFast, and CTM Graphix.
Secondary sponsors are Turbo Oil, DarX and Hevado. More than enough to fill out the car.
Driver torso on this one is printed, so this car can be expanded into a good looking full pit row team. Female driver, black helmet, fluorescent lime visor, lime fire suit with touches of white and black. Black driving gloves. Good contrast in the cockpit.
I’m going to hunt through my sticker sheets to see if I can add any further black backed sponsor stickers, but I think this is sufficient.
There is any issue on the windshield sticker, which my cars don’t typically have. I may need to Kragle the edges down as they wrap around, or carefelly snip the sides of the sticker down a bit, as there is no detail there.
I was already forced to place the side stickers over an assembly of parts on the side walls, but it’s not showing through the sticker, so that’s okay. If you plan on disassembly, the side walls are going to be a small problem.
I am currently working on the back of the cockpit and the hood, then finalizing the stickers.
A completed pic later today I hope.
MAXIMUM VERBOSITY IS BACK
