    That was awesome!  Good find!  Did you see the LCD screen in the dash?  The background color changes and it looks like some text is changing too.  Amazing.  Cute seat covers.

    I am now wanting to to an interior in my car so I did a quick search online to find out how he did that.  I only found a little bit and it said they used gyros to control the driver.  Gonna have to do some more research.

    You should look into some of the stuff in the scale crawler world. You should be able to source a lot of materials and ideas from there. The techniques and skills are the same for both hobbies. You will find a lot of guys who enjoy building and displaying their models staticly more than the actual driving. When I can Post pics again I will toss some up of the current scaler I'm working on. It has a full interior with lights, driver, moving wheel etc. I have had plans for a long time for a drifter just haven't ever gotten around to making it happen. I will have to come hang out when you guys run some time to get some motivation on it.

    I've got some newspapers for you.  Maybe we can meet this weekend and I'll give them to you.  Possibly at Harbeck?  I may have another person with a nice TC5.

    I think I enjoy the build myself. In fact I rarely finish a build all the way because I like working on it and once it's done I can't change it anymore lol. I found an early on picture of my current build that shows the interior. It has changed a little bit but has the same general look
