Awesome! That RC car is insane, what a talent!

Ive got a whole collection of self built 1:43 cars, which include a model of every car ive owned and their mods (OCD much?), and a few others that I just like. Without boasting, I think the level of detail I have on some of mine is probably better than on those static 1:18 posted. Here's an example of one of them.

I organised a bulk deal on the Tamiya RC MX5 for members of the MX5 Car Club in the late 90's. Ten people took the offer.

Thanks :)

The circlips on the intake hose in the engine were too small to see with the naked eye. Dropping one was irritating :lol:
