Up until recently I had a model that was working OK and was halfway through a patriotic raspberry riffle scheme when my eldest said "Dad it needs streamlining" 
Well I`ve PSR`d often and now got this:-


It still needs work but your comments?

More work and a backstory

After Opel cancelled work on rocket cars the new jet engines caught his eye, and in America, Gotham citizen Dirk Knight, a millionaire playboy and philantropist, had been toying with land speed records and together they built this Knight`s second of three attempts at the record.

Thus the Knight Opel Blitz II was born, later known as the Mid Knight Lightning.
Still lots to do and comms and crits welcomed.

As explained in my other post I`ve had to cut these short and as this only need wheels to be sourced I`ve decided that minimal ground clearance is obligatory and the suspension lifts the body on engine start. Why do real cars do this anyway- it`s just somthing else to go wrong. Just give me a car with two buttons- fast and faster. Oh and I suppose some brakes might help  ;D



Enjoy, and as usual comms crits and invites to the pub warmly accepted
