Good to hear from you Ivan,I have looked at only one Roger Taylor drniwag, i.e. that for the 1975 Hesketh 308. Accurate scaling up/down from 1/24 needs at least one known true dimension.I believe the magazine was either Motor, or Autocar or similar, however, I was sent a photocopy of the drniwag therefore not knowing what the source was exactly. Thank you for you for your kind overall assessment expressing your enjoyment at seeing the models I have made. Great cars in the 70 s, wonderful variety of designs and ways of trying to exploit aero' for example without wind tunnels; also fascinating interpretation of rules to appreciate evolution of the engineering, Gordon Murray being a really pro-active exponent of the latter, not to mention the iconic designs of Mauro Forghieri, the genius of Colin Chapman and the more formal thoughtfulness of Derek Gardner and Gordon Coppuck.Mark
