Except I'll be doing a Macchi C.202 instead of the Fiat. I've already got the kit on it's way along with a $60 detail set I bought from Modelnerds for $10 :lol: :lol: :lol: Now just to find the sponsor decals without costing and arm and a leg. So far I'm up for $50 worth of decals via ebay :|

Great project. Looks like something the late Guido would have loved to race.

Why is it that red aeroplanes just so work for me?

Ok I think I have all the decals I need for this. I'm also putting a 4 point car racing harness in it and that's on the way as well. So this is what it feels like to spend twice what the kit cost on after market shit LOL The only thing I'll have to get is some exhausts (Red roo when I get home) and wheels from ebay next pay. I hope there's no more to get after all that cos it's costing me a fortune. I do have a couple of other racing wif's, both in 1/48 that I've got decals on my watch list on ebay as well ;)
