Well, they have Ferrari 126C2 in 1/20th scale. With Fujimi out there I don't understand the appeal of a $300.00 1/20th. Can anyone elaborate?

That was already a model show special. Easy release to the worldwide customers.
I have their original transkit for the Fujimi kit and the result won't be much different I think.
This is for the Hiro fans who rather get everything in one box. Same appeal a s a Lotus 99T or MP4/4 kit that sold a s well I guess.

Looks like Los Angeles. Santa Catalina Island in the background. Ferrari 312T3????

It’s Seneca Lake (Watkins Glen) from high above, probably a 312T3.

Brucey nailed it. View looking over Angeles National Forest looking towards Long Beach. So a Reutemann specific 312T3 with the extra vents in the front top body.

Not to be too difficult about it but there are no islands in Seneca Lake, there is no coastline quite line what's pictured, and there are no mountainous formations anything like what's pictured anywhere near Watkins Glen. Seneca Lake is also rather tall and narrow and doesn't present any sort of a horizon like in Hiro's tricky photograph.

I was looking at what appears to be a long narrow body of water in the image. As far as mountains go, Watkins Glen is surrounded by mountains, and the circuit sits on top of one. It’s probably the LA area, I’ve never been there, so I’ll take your word for it. I was going from my experience, and what I tried to find in the image.

Yup. Been climbing that hill since 1986 when I was there as the fuel man for an IMSA team.
