Re: Time Attack/Circuit Racer Mitsubishi Evo V
Mike, it's thruly fantastic.
I know you would like a less boring powerplant, but consider the idea of a full metal chassis+engine... would weight a lot  So... just send me your address  , I need another great beta tester

Re: Time Attack/Circuit Racer Mitsubishi Evo V
I've finally had some time to focus on this project and start cutting open the the doors. I have also opened up the rear wheel wells. I had to open up the rear wheel wells before opening the rear doors to help with alignment.
After opening the front door I began work on the door frame which is built out of styrene. Some brass rod was used to aid in strength, particularly the b-pillar. Window frame sills were also added around the upper door frame on the body. The rest of the door frame is currently separate from the body and the frame, but will be glued to the frame later. Also note that the exhaust cutouts havent been made in the door frame yet.  I was curious to see what it looked like mocked up with a wheel and tire in the middle of progress. Note, I will not be using this wheel as it is too large, but the outer diameter of the tire is correct.    Enjoy! Quote:

Re: Time Attack/Circuit Racer Mitsubishi Evo V
Looks fantastic.
It's good to see others working in brass. It's such a joy to work with.. i adore it. I hope your project will spur more people to give it a try.

Re: Time Attack/Circuit Racer Mitsubishi Evo V
Wow. Stunning work! A lot of real race cars don't have this extensive and careful prep work. The brass cage is amazing. But you know I'm a lover of plastic, so I find the door frames, particularly the B pillar, just beautiful. Can't wait to see more.
