There's this one

When I'm not racing slotcars,
I'm out in the back yard, burning food!!

When I win, it's because of my talent, not my car or my controller!

I have been dreaming of someone to make this!
someone somewhere heard me - what a beautiful car.

I see the photos of the finished car compared to what you actually get in a parts kit are worlds apart. The wheels for starters are BRM which is an additional cost of $50 just there alone. But what frustrates me the most is I know if I build the car it will look like nothing compared to the photos of the finished cars depicted there. The models are beautiful and not a common car that manufacturers produce which makes them all the more important to get right. They were obviously built by experts who have skills in modeling that I only dream of and to improve my skills on a already $150 kit is not justifiable in my books. I would however consider purchasing a car if it was finished like in the photos and RTR at prices comparable to Racers cars but as far as I can tell that is not an option at this time. Grrrrrrrrrh!
