I wish I took pics of this car before I fixed it up.. Back story... This graphite team car sat in a local hobby shop display case in perfect condition for over 6 years that I have been going to it, until three months ago.

This topic is going to come up eventually, we all know it!.. LOL!! So who is building the new Worlds car to be a shelf queen or a Saturday night local track runner?

I guess I'm getting mine now!! I just got a email from Tower saying it is going to ship soon.

Dang!!
I just called Tower after seeing the new status and they said they didn't have enough stock come in and fill all back orders, mine will still be mid April.

Tower must have sold out quickly with the stock they got in between back orders and new sales, they are now back to mid April status.
Lynn

I want to know if the numbered circle decals are included with the kit?

that looks sweet, david! for some reason, that detonator body doesn't look as bad as it normally does to me. i don't know if it's because of the larger 2.2 wheels/tires....... or the fact that it isn't painted yet. :lol: I agree! It is the proportions of the body to the wheels that make a BIG diffe...

What addtional worlds holes are you referring to? There is already an additional hole inside apart from the array of 9.. A 2nd series bulkhead on left (same as rere), original worlds style on right.
