Ken Miles and Carrol Shelby:

Enzo Ferrari himself:

Excellent well done,

Looks like Enzo is doing a Stevie Wonder impersonation
Is that trick looking Mustang a 1/24 or 1/32.

Cheers Grump

It's all 1/24th. The Ken/Carroll photo was taken with a wide angle lens which distorted the perspective slightly.

Those figures are great

Really nice track aswell, well done

Mike.

 

[Homer]

nice idea and well done

I like your pit stalls and the viewing area for the fans on top. Do you have any more pics of it? I am in the design stage for mine and would like to incorprate some of your ideas rather than re-invert the wheel.

Thanks

Where can I buy Neubauer and Enzo figures?.

Bill,

Here are additional 1/24th pit building photos. By changing the static cars, we can replicate different times in Motor sport History to fit are 12 different classes which represent eras from the 1950's to the present. By the way we are constatnly adding figures to give the pits that busy appearance.

1950's:

1960's

1990's NASCAR

Present time GT race

And an individual pit stall

who needs engine hoists with that guy on the right ... The one carrying a 3.4l flat 6 as if its a toy .. oh it is

Those figures are Doug Haynes' art work. See Resilient Resins.

The many, almost 300, other figures are the work of Pelican Park members.

Thanks for all the compliments, guys.

For those familiar with the American Stack car racing scene, here's, in his younger days, in the '60's, Richard Petty standing next to Il Commodantere Ferrari who's extolling the performance virtues of a TR-250.

For those familiar with the Indy circuit, the fat guy in the background arguing with a USAC official (United State Auto Club, a big deal 50 yrs ago) is Andy Granattelli, a most important fellow in American oval racing then.

Colin Chapman & Jimmy clark. The lotus 25 By the way, I built this Lotus 25 way back in 1964 when it was raced at club tracks in Los Angeles. Hence the "well raced" look.
