That is slick! 
I’d like to see details when you’re done with your build and open to sharing your secret sauce. Good luck in the competition! I didn’t know that was a thing. 
Looks sweet, what’s the size on that? (I understand it’s 1:18 scale but I have no idea how big a drag wheel is)
This wheel is 1" in diameter.

Mattel does 2 conventions a year. We just got done with the east coast one 2 weeks ago. I compete in the pro classes with ex mattel designers.
I’ve trophied in every class except large scale, which is 1:43 and up.
This was my 1st place winner this year in 1:64 traditional hot wheels scale.

Wow! That is awesome work! I imagine you could make some pretty good money making custom cars. Are you using decals or are you hand painting/airbrushing them?
These are water slide decal.
I’ve made quite a bit over the years, but I only do it for competitions now.

That is extremely impressive, both what your cnc can do and what you can do. Keep up the amazing work and keep posting pictures I can drool over

I just finished the 5 holes. The text doesn’t always turn out the best when you’re painting them. It looks great bare metal but that isn’t the look I want. Is what it is at this scale. Lol.
