Here's what my vac-formed 1/43rd Lola GT looked like in February:

And it was mounted with velcro.

I added some painted detaling, rounded out the rear wheelwells because it was a real pain keeping the rear tires from rubbing, and I wanted to widen its stance a bit.

Here it is now:

Sweet, mic! I thought it looked good the other way, but this way looks very cool too!
Can you tell if it handles better now or did you make the mods for pure asthetic appeal?
Keep up the tinkering and tweeking!

It does handle better this way. I actually like the wheels inside in the rear, but the chassis is a bit too wide and I couldn't keep the wheels positioned right. I have too more. I am going to do one more rounded wide one, and leave the other one with the squared off wells, and keep the wheels under.
