Thumbs up FLP/Dan Bills' Pro 5.0 Mustang back from the body shop (pics).
Here are a few shots the Pro 5.0 Mustang as it looked right after coming out of the paint shop. It was at the body shop a "little bit" longer than expected, but as you can tell... it was well worth the wait. The entire carbon fiber body weighs only 65 pounds! Dan is in the process of installing the engine, transmission, electronics, etc. in his "spare time" after work. Mid 6s at 220 mph is the plan.

Looks great! But where is he going to race it? Pro 5.0 in the NMRA no longer exists.

Thumbs up
Thanks for the kind words, guys. Dan is almost done putting it together. He actually had to wire the entire car by himself which takes a lot of time. I'll have a lot more pics soon. Dan plans on starting it this weekend.
