Oh yao,
My son Chris is ate up with Tony. He ran a Tony Stewart body on his 1/10 scale last year and going back next year.
I always thought it would be cool if every body ran Nascar painted bodies and then we would send the pictures off to the Magazines and see if they would publish it. Chris is also going to run Tony colors on the new sprintcar.
By the way you can get the decals from all your favorite Nascar drivers and other circuit drivers @ www.slixx.com

My wife Janice & I are HUGE fans of his - must be a "Chris" thing, eh??? I've been known to paint r/c stuff in either his or Danny Lasoski's "colors" - sometimes it brings me luck; othertimes NOT! :)

Here's one taken in '00 about 1:30am on a Sunday morning after Tony had crashed out (while going for the lead) of a late model race in Granite City, IL

When observed in public, I'm frequently asked "what do you do at Home Depot?".......

My usual reply is: Spend Money!

I tell you what Chris if you come 1/10th scale racing with us I'm sure my Chris will give up the "COLORS" if you want them.

No one runs Micro's. Hell, I'd be happy to find someplace that raced 1/12 scale on a regular basis, then maybe I'd buy one of those guys. :)

Hopefully, enough folks are interested in 1/18 scale off-road to get that class going again at Blue View. Long live 1/18 off road. :D

I think that there's a pretty good possibility that I'll be paying you folks a visit or 2 next year - would have made it toward the end of this year BUT it seems like something was conflicting in each of your last 3 races!

The current reality of my cars is that *generally* speaking most of them are painted like r/c cars these days because the majority of them are used for magazine articles and we all know - FLASH sells! :)

Nobody has taken Marks, and I acually have his Slixx decals at the house. Last winter Slixx annouced that they were going out of business so I bought up a bunch of sheets. (6) months later they were back in business. I have been selling them off. Scott if you want these I will save them for you.
