A pretty short competition history and only very subtle difference between it's only two liveries mean a slot car version of the Dome would not be a great business idea. Shame as I love it and you never know Scaleauto brought that Radical out.

I fairly convincing reliveried 908 may look OK.

I assume Slot it will get round to more versions of the old trusty Lola.

Don't really know what you mean, an Audi, Dome and an HPD look nothing like each other??

the Dome, Lola and Toyota have much in common but if your CFD machine is any good then you would hope the answers it comes up with would be similar to the 908 because it was the dogs.

Did you notice the size of the front wheels on the HPD were the same size as the rear? Because ultimate aero was not considered as important as mechanical grip in the ALMS it was conceived for? One example of why this is the most interesting formula around IMHO.

On the above note, can anybody think of a Pescarolo or Courage car from the last decade that Patto produces decals for? The theory being many of the sponsors Motul/LaSarthe should be the same and may help a printer less person such as me produce a re livery. I've had a quick look and can find nothing, I think an AFX 908 (ho) is begging to pretend it's a Dome.

Thanks in advance.
