Any ideas on the monster racer shell?

Find me one for a decent price and I might be able to put the skyline your way. I need to check it's actually there. I thought I could see it, but I had had a couple of drinks.....

Yeah, but a hundred quid for a bit of polycarbonate???

Maybe I should look at another shell. Anyway, I'll try and get the cars that are down there at some point over the next few days and see what's what.

many years ago i used to race rc 1/12 scale battery and 1/8th scale racing cars, but the project i most enjoyed was scaling up a dinky toy centurian tank which i built in plywood, idividually controlled tracks, turret and gun, but rc boats were my first love torpedo boats with operating torpedos and fast air/sea rescue boats , never got into planes,saw to many dive into the ground to want to spend time and money on them, but the ones that worked well were brilliant to watch, the nearest i got to planes were jetex free flight planes, does any one else remember them?

She's gone to Argentina on holiday. Who goes to Argentina on holiday? Just before Christmas?

I'll retrieve what I can when I can and let you know what's what, Andy.

Thought I'd post some pics of my new toy. Not very practical for commuting but the mpg figures are streets ahead of the things on the driveway.
