    I’ll bet the first one was used for a Dual Battery mod. He said in the description that “he doesn’t have a battery for it” not that he didn’t have batteries for the charger.

    As far as the second, did you notice he put RUNS 45 seconds after a 2 min charg :smiley2: Just thought it was funny that he got it backwards.

    I’m planning on throwing the Lancer in the contest for sure. I’m really happy with it so far. I think that’s why I’m being so picky with the sponsor. I was driving up a major highway (US19) on my way to work today and saw a TON of logos I can use. I’ll probably throw Circuit City on as the main, but I’ve got
    -Chic-fil-a
    -Arby’s
    -Bridgestone
    -Firestone
    -Wendy’s
    -Texico
    -Citgo
    -Circle K
    -K Mart

    So I think I need to just shut up and paint :smiley2:

    What I’m looking at the most seriously so far is Wing House. Good colors Red Black White. I’m hoping to find a good tuner or perfomance part to throw on though.

    I thought about bud, but I’m using another beer company for my Race GTR Skyline. I don’t want to say too much and ruin the surprise, but it should be pretty cool when it’s done.

    I wish I could go, but Australia is a HUGE drive from Florida, USA. Plus I don’t know how well my car would hold up through the oceans.

    I’m just happy to have a gallery for now, Aaron, but when the big ones do become available, I’d love to have one.

    Thanks for the update!

    That was it Freeloader! I was sitting there thinking, it all starts out nice, then the military gets involved and we’re busting out with Cyborg chimps with flame throwers.

    One of the parts that blew me up the most in the first one was when Captain Jetta was like “Yo, that dude in the Honda 2000 (S2000) thinks he can beat me.” I just sat there thinking, he can moron, you’re driving a JETTA.

    I got dragged to the first one, and wouldn’t go to this one, but my father and I helped them buy some of the cars (the only one I KNOW they used is the vette that wrecks with the Mustang).

    Why couldn’t I have been a part of Saving Private Ryan!?!

    I’ve loaded up some new pictures in my gallery… No track pics yet, but it’s not done yet anyway, so there isn’t TOO much to see anyway.

    A mouse with wheels!

    I actually saw a radio controlled Rat on The Learning Channel. They plugged some wires into the sensory part of it’s brain and they could control it’s path through a computer and give it mental rewards. It was some Robotics show.

    You still need the kit, but the Microsizer Pro comes with a yellow and a clear lancer body. I’d actually like to see a few more little ricers too. I’m not even all into them on the road, but I’d honestly rather see that than a Lamo Countach

    I’ve taken some new pictures of most of my current cars. I’ll be posting them Saturday night (June 7th). I wanted to let you all know that I am currently working on a Mitsu Lancer that I’m VERY happy with so far. I’ll keep you all posted and have pictures up as soon as possible.

    When I was applying for a gallery, it said you can upgrade to a larger one if you REALLY needed it. What do you have to do to get that? I’m already consolidating and I have to load up some track pics, and I’d like to do multiple angles of my cars.

    If anyone knows… please help me out.

    I got the Green from a hobby shop. It’s an acrylic based paint for Dungons & Dragons characters (I guess) called “Slime Green” I just thought it looked cool.

    I’m building a Lancer Evo now. Hope you guys like! 😀

    Ha! What a mutant. I’ve got a better match stick mod anyway… Strap a bottle rocket (or larger propelling firework) to the roof of bit, remove motor and gear, use match to light bottle rocket and hold on tight!

    *Warning* only good for one time use, may damage bit char-g, some charing is expected.

    I’m thinking of attempting to turn a Honda S2000 into a BMW M Coupe, but I’ve got to start small :smiley2:

    Thanks guys! Everything is freehand paint on the Celica. Most of the “cool spot” work was done with a sharpened toothpick.

    I want to do some actual body work now… I’ve seen some of the work that the rest of you are pushing out and I’m very impressed and inspired. I’m just hoping I don’t destroy my next project :smiley2:

    Thanks guys

    The GTR was the first one I did. The paint on it is the best because I had a friend that did paintwork on cars and we mixed up automotive paint for it.

    The Spoon Accord was done with Canned Spray Paint, and it didn’t come out quite how I wanted.

    The bB is a combination of the spray paint and brushed acrylic. It’s alright, but needed some help.

    The RX7 was my first full acrylic. I like how it came out, but when I peeled the tape, it started pulling the paint with it.

    The Celica was my last car at the moment and I used acrylics, recut the tape after the paint dried (to break the body paint from the tape paint) and put the final clear coat on afterwards. I like this approach the best, so I’ll be doing that on the next few. (Unless I can get my hands on some more auto body spray paint.)
