Pre-cut is Awesome

I’ll admit that I’m terrible at cutting out bodies. Back in the day of touring cars I’d be better off throwing the body in a ninja sharp fan than me having to take scissors to it. While building my Tamiya Rally Car for VRC_006 I had to get a body, and this body comes with pre-cut wheel wells! How awesome is that? I think it’s one of the best things of the 21st century, and maybe since…forever. Well maybe not that amazing, but it sure made my day before spending 3 hours putting stickers on anyway.
