I like the addition of the helmet. It gives the car a human element.

That means that Lego build 1/25?
Nice to know.

Like the car too.
The red belts (or tape) on the tires, was it removed before the race?
Or is it something special on the Nascar Cars?

the red stripe lines up with one of the lug nuts this helps speed up tire changing during a pitstop as it helps the guy line up the wheel. , they use tape on the real cars it just melts off as the tire gets hot

Another stunning build James, great work. Do you have plans on doing any of the “COT” Car of Today stockers. Hey did you get the last Model King Monte Carlo release, if so who’s car will you be building.
