There's a few on here into RC cars, here's one I prepared earlier ( beer bottle as an idea of size):



Here she is nude:



Twin .21 engines, both carbs opened out to get more go-go juice in. The car does 50+ with one engine and gets there in no time at all, when I get it finished I reckon it'll be a "bit nippy". Still waiting for some engine parts for engine No2.


Anyone else? or am I the only sad b@stard in here?

edit to say : downsized the piccies - and that is NOT my house

I've got a Savage and it was a b@stard to start when it was new but now it runs like a dream. I have had to replace all the dogbones as I broke them on some jumps and the pull start but now it is great. Goes like stink and gets BIG air. It is nowhere as pretty as the pics on here though as it is filthy and dented and only 2 months old.
