About 4 years ago I was making the 2002 Franchitti Mexico winner (the KOOL Menthol Lights) I had it painted & a cardboard box fell over on the fresh paint. I was so pissed I through on the shelf & a couple weeks ago I decided to make it a Tracy. The rear wing that comes with the Brack donor is not the correct wing, so I made the right one. Also air intakes were raised using thin brass stock which are not used on the donor. I also added the camera on the roll hoop, correct BBS wheels & Bridgestones. This is one of my best & am very pleased with the result. I decided to take photos outdoors in natural light for the first time.

I always thought that Paul & Dario's cars were the KOOLest (heh... ;D...heh...) looking cars. Too me 2002 was that last great Champcar year. Beautiful paint work! Stu

Trim off the proper arrow on the tire decals depending which side they're on. I have done that now but these pics will stay. Once I forgot to glue on mirrors before taking pics.
