Nice detailing. It almost looks "liquid"--did you use lacquer?

Also, it looks like a GT--which you wouldn't want to lower. You lower race cars to cut out the air underneath them, and because you know you are going to be driving on a relatively smooth surface and driver comfort is a somewhat secondary consideration. Are you planning on making this into a GTR?

HI!!! Congratulations! very well done mclaren.
i was just wondering how did you lowered the front wheels? and was it easy to change the wheels? i have an extra black mclaren GTR so i might try to do something similar to the real one.

I know a lot of people say this, but that is a car that is truly worthy of being the Batmobile. Excellent job, I wish it was a real car!

Funny you post that. I had replaced the wheels on the diecast GT as well with the 5-spokes from a broken LM. Mine isn't lowered like yours is though.

I'll have to find another donor car for another set of wheels.

Regards
