Yes, it was challenging, especially the roll cage and nerf bars. It is actually 1/87 scale. I won't be doing any tiny race cars again any time soon! I will stick to the bigger stuff. I am back to building cars, starting with a '32 Ford sedan dirt jalopy.

I still contend that is the biggest hand ever! (ha!)
I appreciate people that actually build and post models.

  Do you by chance have a 1:87 of a 1:8 scale build that you have done?   You know...a model of a model ;D
       I think it would look like an 8th scale with a 1:1 scale.
  And yes, that build does make your hand look large.

Thanks for the comments!

No, I don't have a model of a model. Interesting idea, though!
