I just had a peek at the Chevrolet Stingray concept car:

This would make a great looking slot car (Race-masters, Auto World, anyone?)

That's very nice. I've always thought it would be cool if one of the slot car or slot car body makers would build a whole series around some of the most famous modern and historical concept cars.

Just a few cases in point:

Those are four great choices, AfxToo. I vote for the Wildcat II as the pick of the litter. Man, that was one sweet looing ride! However, check out the Ricearoni concept car pictured next to the Buick...

Whoa, those ground effects totally rock.

That car is just one set of curb feelers away from being Perfectomungo ...

and a San Francisco treat to boot!
