Nice :smiley:  And a blast from the past ... I recall slapping together the MPC Paxton STP car in my youth.

In an OT rant, I wish that the PT6-based turbine cars had developed into their own class. Alas, the USAC banned turbines after a fatal Lotus 56 crash ... 'cuz, in the entire history of auto racing, no internal combustion-engined racing car has ever crashed  :P
