Personally I have a hard time seeing it as a racer. I think the flat nose makes it look like a space semi to me. Of course that just my 2 cents.

Fair enough. It probably would have helped if I gave a better top shot- it looks a lot sleeker from the top or bottom, as the nose is tall and somewhat narrow rather than flat and wide. Even so, the racers aren’t all intended for atmospheric flight- even if the “multi-environment” bit implies that they should be. The main thing is that they are all tiny with fairly large engines.


   Other than that it looks cool. I like how the canopy opens, probably my favorite part of the moc.

Thanks- and that’s where the model started.
