was thinkng about it
3 problems with painting the beast australian racing grey!!!!!

No.1
would need a fair few cans of paint, that colour aint cheap you know :shock:

No.2
the problem with the spraying with the can technique is that you can do some real damage to the index finger through to much cramping.

No.3
the finish that is produced from australian racing grey is rough to the touch and would not be very aero dynamic hence slowing my lap time down
significantly. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Lol, golf balls are dimpled because they spin. Allowing them to push air out of the way. I'm assuming you don't want fairings spinning. Hehe.
