Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
today i got the rims printed in 3d. this technology is awesome for those parts. I finally can have the special oz 9 spocket rims for those gt3 cars.
The tire I use are from Tamiya AMG mercedes. Tamiya always makes the nicest rubber wheels around since always. and an overall setup test. Now with the correct wheels I can finish the shape of the wheel arches (inner side) so happy I could avoid the 10 spocket wheels from mclaren mp4-12c I planned to use in the beginning...

Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
The Italian Honda nsx gt3 will race at the next intercontinental gt challenge race, the 10h of suzuka (THE home of honda, after the ring the nicest track of the world for me...)
and many nsx gt will be competing. I´ve never seen those wonderful colored cars. together with IMSA cars they are really amazing. https://www.intercontinentalgtchallenge.com/ in the meanwhile I went on correcting some little mistakes I found in my build, and I think I am getting closer and closer to the proper correct body. A messy area is the front wheel air extractor, never so clean in the pics I had a today. Also here is critical the help I had from the factory..

Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
i made the side mirrors, they have a quite complicate shape and also the attachment to the body is totally different from the street version
i used very thick and hard lelfovers of plasticard. the experience I made with side mirrors on ecv2 with the help of Luca cavicchi Master was really useful... and here some wonderful lyveries from last suzuka endurance race. This car is really beautiful while the brand new and fresh printed decals from decaldoc arrived. Frank made a very nice work, probably done for the joker gfk slotbody already around. I will probably cut all the green part and repaint that on my body

Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
then will be a looooong waiting Alex. I have to talk with my caster at the end of september in italy , and see if is possible to make a mini-serie of this body. A lot of people likes so much this racer and ask me for copies, but this means the work in progress will be stopped soon for an undefined time
With 997 gt3r this pause become a delay of 1 year,and the master was totalled during the process. Just I am happy so many guys liked so much my cars. stay tuned..

Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
refinishing some body parts:
Discover also this nice sportscar was designed by a pretty lady named Michelle christensen, while the designer of the racer is an unknown italian designer (always happens...the racer designer nobody knows..lol) and a final setup with temporaary fixing of the reaar wing. also wheels are of course temporary, but I see the car in its integrity now..and I like it and I like it so much I also game a little with photo filters checking what left into tamiya box , I found they placed very nice road tyres in the kit. They fit perfectly to the wheels custom made in 3d. Just they are a liiiiitle slimmer, but inside the car could be not noticeable I also closed the side vents. This is a part I need to place for casting the bodies. I think, when moulded in resin it wwould be better to cut the lower part and make it with a pe net btw this weekend I will be in monza for the international gt open (sprint race) and I hope I can spot many details I need for my build. The actual model I am building right now can be seen at the next Hobby Model expo in Novegro (linate-Milano) at my stand Al Soldatino - Milano

Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
as said I been to Monza track and I could spot a complete full walkaround of the nsx racing there.
I plan to do a full photo file of the many pics I have of this racer when I complete the resin production. Finally, I have all the interiors and engine in detail. Thank u so much to my ex-company, still friends, but work in real motorsport is not for me any longer .. . Of course, before I have to submit the request to theme cause I know I have many pics that really can't be shared, despite those are my friends. I still have the message of unkindly public relation man at Callaway that neither wanted to give me very generical info on the car they do. It really depends who u ask to about this stuff. Note at the end of the race there has been a horrific crash involving an AMG Mercedes from a Portuguese team that hit the wall at 280 km/h. The pilot is seriously hurt in the legs, This was the last lap after 1 with the safety car. After parabolica turn there is the main straight and to crash there is deadly... warning, cause the video is scary https://www.youtube.com/watch?featur...co&app=desktop

Very nice an cool build Paolo! I like the car a lot! Jenson Button also races with this car and sports a cool livery too. Maybe we could ran into each other this weekend in Novegro?

Re: Jas Motorsport - Castrol Honda NSX GT3 1/24 - Spa24 h race 2018
also this nsx gt3 is currently under production. The bodyshell will have also side mirrors, main wing and 3d printed wheels as option (some likes to slot race theme, so maybe no need). SO happy also this model is coming to life.
few weeks more for the cast, but we are nearly there. nearly there Really like a lot this racer.
