1/64th "I Drive Green" - Nelson Phillipe

[fastlap]

Hi all,

Here is one of my 1/64th resin slot car bodies. I always thought this 2009 livery from Conquest Racing with driver Nelson Phillipe was unique. This depicts the livery run at the 500, but the body is obviously in road course trim. Decals from Patto's. They were not for the faint of heart to install. I may add mirrors, and this will be a "runner" on my track.

First photo is of the real car.

Now that's a GREAT looking Indy car...specially in 1/64 scale!

Thanks Gary! That means a lot coming from you.

Gary, I had forgotten about this car. Hope it races better for you than Nelson did that day.

Question, are no camera and mirrors an intentional choice given that it is a slot car and those are easily lost appendages?

Good job on it and kudos for making those decals look so nice.

Thanks, Jordan!

I will probably add mirrors, The airbox sits tall enough to protect the mirrors in case of an off. As far as the camera, that would most likely be an added part of the main body mold if I sell enough of these to make another generation mold. The mirrors will really add a nice touch though.
