Sometimes it's all about the patina
- That Ford looks perfect as is. — SpyDude
- Thanks man! It’s one from when I was a kid. I sent it out to the final RLDRL but the post office lost it. They’re not sure where it is. It won’t get to the race in time but I’m really hoping it makes it there at least so I can get it back at some point. Bummed about this one -SpyDude — GoldenOwl
- That sucks - hope they find it. Might not make it in time for the race, but you’ll have it back. — SpyDude
Our entry for the DIRS 2021 season. Kept the stock wheels/axles but polished the axles and added graphite, a small amout of weight to lift it up to 46g and of course custom paint and graphics
- Nice! Are the numbers water slide decals? With your permission, I'll probably include this in the next DRR article. — IndianaDiecastRacing
- Does it have a name? — IndianaDiecastRacing
- There are more photos in the Canyon FB group. It's called "Lemon, Lime and Bitters" :) Yes, home made waterslide decals on the roof and sides. the others were purchased — Chaos_Canyon

In 1985, the British band Level 42 released their album World Machine. In 1970, Ford (UK) released the Mk I Ford Escort RS1600. In 2020, Kit K-M combined them into a diecast car to travel the world in the DIRS:
- very Awesome i hope i get to race you on the DIRS.... just hope my DIRTUS isnt to fast for the corners lol — RAGTAG_JIM
My latest work
- That looks really cool! Is it multiple top coats of different paint types? — G4DiecastRacing
- The base, body, and windshield were painted separately with rattle cans. The body got an additional layer of glittery spray on top of the gold layer. — IndianaDiecastRacing
- Nice! I may need to pick up some glitter spray for a future car. — G4DiecastRacing
Here is my latest and craziest creation for D64's Heavyweight Downhill Dash. It is two Chevy Nomads combined to a length of 3.75" and weighs 124g. I originally wanted to make it a pearl white limo, but I couldn't get the fabrication seams to look smooth. So I finally gave up and just made it look old and rusty! LOL!
- Very nice, did you make a video on this? — BlueLineRacing
- Thanks! No, I haven't done any videos at all. Not yet. :) — G4DiecastRacing
- Wow, crazy mod, looks great — Mayfield41
- DUDE ........ the NoMa-a-a-ad!!!!! — SpyDude
- OMG that is soo awesome I don't even have words to describe it... — RAGTAG_JIM
- Thanks for the kind words! This mod was definitely a labor of love, even though it looks like an old rusty turd. Ha! — G4DiecastRacing
- I like the stretch alot!!! Super annoying to smooth out but you did a cool job with what you did. — Mattman213
