Good to see some of you on the Silverstone Friday. Though I no longer have my stradale, I still feel very much at home on the SEC stand.

During a conversation, I remembered a thread on the old site that had a link to Arena models and their Stratos paint schemes. I used it to get inspiration for my red/white/black car back in the day. I had a quick google and came up with this site. But, I'm sure that there is a far more comprehensive set of model photos somewhere lurking on the Japanese interweb. Nevertheless, hopefully, this will give some inspiration to builders and buyers out in Stratosland.

Aw come on now Elliott, take a test drive in a Lister Bell and get your juices flowing again.....Scrap that old Porche, buy a Stratos, and get back into the Stratos fold where you know you belong. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.....

Yes he's gone down hill after selling his Stratos, He also said that the Porsche club is full of miserable gits ( most probably still mulling over their last service bill )..............

The "miserable git" part is true. :D.

I couldn't get away from the Porsche field at Silverstone quick enough. Yes, I do have a Porsche now. But, it's a BIT different to the run of the mill stuff........

A 964 C4 targa.

As for a new Stratos. Well, I do seriously fancy a Lister Bell. But, I'll have to wait for one of you guys to:
A) Build one.
B) Having built it, decide that you want to build another one "the proper way".
C) Put the first one up for sale.

Before I can lay my hands on one. So, I give it five years or so.
