You have some very talented slot car body painters in your club Haruki.  I especially liked the green checked  flag look.

It is Ryu's car.

Building & painting his cars, he is one of the fastest racers here.

My favorite car was Omi's asymmetrical paint job. I might not paint something that way, but it really stands out. :)

It was painted by Morio Hashimoto.

Morio is a great painter & chassis builder, as well as a very experienced racer.

I am familiar with Morio's paint work from the days of J-Slot. He painted some nice bodies, both for scale & wing cars. Is Akitani still involved in Tokyo slotracing?

Bill,

 

Akitan-san has been absent from our racing activities for over a year to take care of his family.

I am quite sure he will be back soon.
