Been a while since I've done some Indycars. Glad to be back doing these new cars. Got 3 bodies done waiting for it to warm up a bit this morning to get the 4th done and start everything else too.

Buddy of mine was his spotter at Indy if one becomes available.

It'll be the Speedway car. This car was fun to watch during the 500. Ran out of black paint. Thought I had a bunch in the stick room but nope. No I'm delayed while I try to find some around here. We don't have many hobby shops in Phoenix.

I think Hobby Lobby's are everywhere. Hobby Lobby near me doesn't carry Tamiya paint plus they have mostly enamel paints. I've already started with Tamiya didn't want to use another brand on it.

You can get some on Amazon Prime too pretty quickly.
Hobby Lobby here has Tamyia Primer, Putty, Tape, etc. but no paints.
Hobbytown USA has the paint for plastic and polycarbonates here in Indy.
Otherwise, I go for Amazon.

Crisis averted! Thanks for the help. Phoenix has 3 local mom and pop hobby shops and all of them are 30+ mins away. Had to go to Gilbert to find some paint. I hardly go to Hobby Lobby for anything I need. Anyway painting is done. Will begin decal work over the weekend.

My local hobby shop that specializes in mostly RC stuff has a great selection of Tamiya. If he doesn't have my odd color I go online.

Buddy of mine was his spotter at Indy if one becomes available. Sorry I missed this. These are all spoken for but I'm always willing to make more. Let me know if he's interested. The madness has begun!
