Noose bodies fitted over several race cars won Concours at 6 classes at the Checkpoint. The other notable Concours winners were a Lotus 40 painted by ? (don't know) in the Jail-Door class and the superb Surtees-Lola T160 painted by Dale Yamashita.
Not sure yet who won Concours in the 1/32 scale classes since I had to leave before they ran.

Chris! Good to hear from you! We missed you at Wylie. I understand you've been under the weather; hope you get well soon.

Jeez! There's something vaguely, creepily-threatening about all those neat ranks of drivers staring at poor Noose at his bench, doncha think? Like, how many of them do there have ta be before they can overpower him? Scary.

I can just imagine the guy at night, pulling his pillow over his head against the sound wafting in from the other room, of tiny off-tune voices singing "On the Road again, jus' can't wait t'get on the Road agaaaainnn....."

They are like rats and keep multiplying. LOL. Last ones for a bit and now onto some bodies and who knows, maybe I can go solder something besides pinions and lead wires.

The other four I showed are the Parma ones pulled in Lexan. These are ones the drag guys use and seem to be sort of a repop of some sort of the Parma and are very heavy plastic. SpeedZone gets them.

I'll look at the label tonight and let you know. Can't recall right now.

I think they may be TR Motorplex Drag interiors. They do look similar to the TR ones

They multiply? ...How do plastic drivers...-you know...do it?

The Duffmeister will be lost no more as he will be in total "control". Kinda thought of theme for this after I took the pic of Duffy with the lane stickers on his head. LOL.

Well, they'll be easier to keep track of here than up top, that's for sure. Seems like everything up top comes off eventually.

Thanks, Noose!

Did this one for my friend Sano Dave Fiedler. Thanks to Manta Ray Price for the idea. I know Dave loved eating at the Waffle House at the R4. Dave was given the body tonight.
