nice looking car micro. But are those soft tires up front and hard tires in the rear? because if so that things gonna do nothing but donuts unless you have something smaller than a 1.6 to put in it.
I'd recommend having medium tires in the back, they're more stable.

NICE!
That second car looks really cool. Is it the same set up as the first? And those tinted green windows look awsome

Yeah, I'm doing some bodywork on a skyline (not the yellow one)
I glued on a custom wing yesterday and I'm gonna do an air scoop today, and it will be painted with an undecoat of Rustoleum gloss black, with Rustoleum Metalic aluminum lightly misted over that. I'll post a thread with pics. when I'm done, and this will be my first paint job on a car, exept for the time I tried to paint a toyota celica body with Rustoleum paints, and you're supposed to wait 15 minutes or 48 hours before clear-coating, I waited about 12 hours, and ummm..., well, it produced a very nice 'wrinkle' finish
hopefully I will learn from mistakes and fair better this time around
hehehe
