i have an original XX in the my shed, complete with hydradrive the lot!! Even has one of those huge nylon wings that were the rage! awesome car in it's day, really kicked the rc10 alloy tub in its place |
Yup for me it was the 870c, 91, 92, 93, YZ10 then XX4 & Pred then Cat 98 I think, then gave up
Cant get the 91-93's for love nor money now though, never even seen a 92 for sale :cry: |
i kinda wish i still had my Serpent Veteq. very nice kit :thumbsup:
|
Corrally / Accociated RC12i for me, from around 1989/90. Went all the way from F3 to F1 at the 1/12th scale nationals over 2 seasons without breaking or even adjusting it!
Chucked my dummy out the pram and retired from 1/12th when I got onto the top heat at Nantwich national and got lapped 4 times by the late great Phil Davies! Back in them days you HAD to be a team driver to get the good motors and cells to compete, we are lucky now that off the shelf stuff is all ballistic! |
double post, sorry

I sold my Tamiya bruiser for £400 which I miss.
I sold my near mint Tamiya rough rider (pre-rerelease) for £400 which I really regretted at the time as it was lovely. I sold a brand new built and never run CAT XLS with a new original shell (it had a painted one too) for a mere £150!!!! a couple of years ago, which was a bit mental. I regret selling my Tamiya Durga DB01 as it was the car I got my F2 with - dogbones all round! Lastly I sold one of my greatest ever new-in-box kits - another unbuilt CAT XLS. Which I feel pretty bad about as I could never ever afford another one or justify it. |
I sold my original Cougar about 10 years ago, one of these days i'll hopefully spot it on ebay and return it home...
My other regret was my optima mid, it "was" at my parents, and when i asked where it was they told me they'd binned it years ago during a clearout... i cried a little inside :cry: |
:(
Firstly my Atomic Carbon CR2 SE...:( It went to a really good home but damn I miss that thing...secondly my Cat SX...When I was a kid and racing Tamiya everybody wanted a Cat...I grew up, could afford one and bought it as my 'coming back to the sport' buggy...its gone now and I wish I 'd have kept it just for nostalgias sake...I try not to get too attached to material things but RC is a cruel mistress :p;)

:( :( :cry: At least it's been raced proper and so forth. Ah well - good luck :) Get some pics up in the Schumacher section.. As for this topic. Another car I wish I'd kept, the Schumacher ProCat I purchased from Chris Wilko from Solent Models. |
To be quite honest I wish I'd kept all my old cars, my first ever car was a Kyosho Raider, then I had a Lazer ZX, then it was an Optima Mid Custom Special. My first Schumacher car was a Top Cat then a Pro Cat, I flirted with 1/8th scale nitro after that with a Turbo Burns and a Mugen Super Sport. I loved all these cars.:cry:
|
My new in box yokomo mr4bx that I found reduced in a model shop to £149.99. I wish they would rerelease it as an mr4bx worlds lipo edition with big bore x shocks. I may just take out a bank loan and get one.
|
wish i still had my yokomo mr4bx for indoor racing it was amazing but out doors it was lacking but the ultimate for me would be the tamiya egress
|
:mad:pro cat and cougar 2 team for me and also my serpent impact 2 and mugen mbx 5 world champ spec
|
I have two National titles. I wish I'd kept the cars, complete... :cry:
I saw in Lostallo, Switzerland all the cars owned by Garibaldi. He always ended the season by storing his cars COMPLETE, for later display... costly but really cool! :D |
Original carbon tub predator think I swapped it for a car stereo :(
|
Schumacher Top Cat for me then my Tamiya Manta Ray witch had every possible upgrade on it owell nevermind

I regret selling my Losi XX the most, it was a brilliant car and really brought me on as a racer back then. Also regret selling my 'spare' new built and unused XX4-WE when in a tight spot. |

Should have kept this as a shelf queen and never have sold it.:cry:
|
Any Of my Tamiya's 501 or 511,
No other 4WD will ever look as good as a tamiya blue |
Mine has too be the FABS MCS No 18.
Sold it too Honeybadger on here. They are beautiful cars!, I sold it because I needed the money at the time, The funny thing was by the time id posted the car I didnt need the money :cry: For you that don't know, The MCS is a limited run of 30 cars. No more will ever be made. Safe to say they are like Rocking Horse S**T. http://i999.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps7c3face6.png |

I used to run a pred and loved it. sold my x10 coz i bought an x11, i loved the x11 but to many breakages for me, it had to go.
I recentley got my hands on a xx4 and it is awsome. i wish i'd got one years ago, only problem now is the lack of spares in the uk. |
Mine was my RC10 Team car. Lent it to Coleman for the Oople race and haven't see it since......
|
I regret selling a couple. biggest regrets are probably my predator p8 which was bullet proof for a pred and my fireblade 2000 which was my first racer. I also regret selling my losi shocks.........Id have a near complete xx kinwald and a xx4 worlds to play with then :(

Had to be my SRP1 4wd chain driven oval car used to race on dirt ovals in the early 90s in California such a great car.

My fave was my Yellow Turbo Optima Mid swb as purchased from Marionville models secondhand but never used. |
Mine was an original Tamiya Hotshot and now got one back again as a shelf queen:)
|
For me it's either myTamiya Egress or my Tamiya TRF511. Bugger.

I regret selling all my cars when I was a teenager, but I had to to buy the latest competitive equipment. The Astute I most wish I hadn't sold as it was such a lovely car even though I never raced it. The Kyosho Lazer ZX-R mk2 I regret because it took me ages to get back into A-finals with the Cat 2000 that replaced it.
Since then I'm glad to say I've kept all my cars and my father's who no longer races. |
I remember owning a carbon tubbed predator , the one with the sticker inside denoting the cars number.
Sold it for 80 pounds. |
