The paint was inspired by old WTCC (around 2005) Seat Leon and made by my dad: The Cupra Leon Competicion was the very first one I did. Let me introduce you the 4 cars I already printed until today! Also, as I want to see these cars as efficient as possible I take care about the body weight, without neglecting robustness. Wheelbase of this chassis is close to the TCR cars which is the most important thing to chose the right chassis. That's why I have decided to adapt my bodies to high performance chassis that are easily available on the market! For these TCRs, all bodies are adapted to the Porsche 962 chassis. There is a very important to me: to make sure that these bodies can run as well as possible. I decided to begin my journey with TCR cars, for various reasons: these are cars we can't find in the slot car market (only Scalextric did some BTCCs, but no TCRs), these are modern cars so there are plenty of pictures to help me in the modeling phase and there are many different cars from many constructors (here is a list of the 26 homologated cars: CARS - TCR HUB) Then I decided to learn how to model and print my own cars and I already created different ones. In my dad's place, I saw different 3D printed cars he bought and I was quite amazed by the quality of these bodies. I started to be interested in the 3D medeling and the 3D printing around a year and a half ago.
