Re: Anyone here going to the Goodwood FoS this year?

Flemming, that almost coincides with my time of going. I was 1999-2011. The first year I attended, saw Mikas McLaren MP4/8 with bodywork off and accessible for photos. I couldn't believe it was possible as a general admission attendee. That was the joy of the event, the public were trusted to be all...

Re: Anyone here going to the Goodwood FoS this year?

I was hoping to try and get there this year, haven't been since 2011, but things haven't worked out right. Would have been great to meet up with yourselves and any other members.
Have a great weekend and please update us on it.

Re: Huge thank you to MFH

Great to hear this level of customer support and also good that you took the time to post about it. Too often people only post when they have a negative view of a company so it's good to take the time to compliment someone for a job well done.

Re: Finishers 1/20 Jordan Yamaha 192

Incredible how much work you had to put in this car. But it was worth the effort. It looks fantastic and your choice of colours fits very good. Which colours have you used for the red and the two shades of blue? For my studio27 transkit I intend to use a bottle of zero paints brilliant blue similar...

Finishers 1/20 Jordan Yamaha 192

Here is my completed Jordan Yamaha 192 as raced in 1992. The kit is by Finishers, decals are from Studio 27 intended for the Jordan Yamaha 191Y presentation car. The kit was not great, had to completely rework the front wing as it would been scraping the floor if I left it as it was. That meant remo...

Re: Larrousse Lola LC90 sponsor help needed

Just looked at a bit more reference and I don't think Suzuki carried the RP logo on the rear wing. Maybe he didn't have a rear facing camera. At the following race at Silverstone the RP logos on Bernards car were replaced with BP.

Re: Larrousse Lola LC90 sponsor help needed

Yes, as Steffen says. They were a chemical manufacturer, French company. They sponsored the team in previous seasons. It is on that position on the car because they had a rear facing onboard camera, looking back from the over the shoulder mounted pod, and the rear wing was fully in frame.
