- When entering a car model in box stock class at a show, is it advantageous to put a mirror underneath of it? I barely see a handful of people do that......if at all. Thanks. *NM*
- If the judges pick up the models I don't think it helps and if they don't, then they shouldn't be giving the ones on stands extra credit. I see the advantage in that if they do pick up the models then they don't have to pick those up and the only advantage is they aren't
- I use an elevated stand with a mirror tilted at a 45 degree angle beneath . This gives the judges a full unobstructed view and discouraged handling . I have received many positive comments from judges concerning this IF you have a detailed chassis, *NM*
- Going to a show this weekend? *NM*
- It IS an idea to provide the kit instructions with the box stock build, at one big show, I didn't and was disqualified because of that! AND it was the only box stock I ever built, never again, LOL I just can't build box stock, I'm a hacker, chopper, whatever, I love being..
- Not all shows allow any kind of base (unless it's a diorama) I recommend checking to be sure. *NM*
- Scott, some show do not allow that and ours is one of them. *NM*
- My personal feeling on the subject.... I REALLY wish folks would leave the mirrors at home... I mean I get why they use them , but when trying to get a decent pic of a model, I hate them.... They really mess with the lighting.
