Something Special
 

I've got something special coming that I've just ordered, hopefully I'll get it in time for my first race of the season on the 28th.

Wait and see, though this will be my picture log.

:woot: Sounds intersting.... Where do you race Marv?

KMRC, just outside Maidstone, Kent.

well this has just become an extremely suspenseful thread haha

gee thanks marvin i was expectin to see what this "something special" actually was haha

Hes boring us as usual lolololol

Thanks Rich.

Patience is a virtue...

come on marvin hit us with it

Prolly one of the most anti-climactic threads ever so far :rolleyes:


(internet didn't use to be like this when people didn't have post counts next to their names...)

Paul

What do I need to increase my post count for? There isn't some reward system in place.

I was hoping to get some friendly guessing in, as a discussion thread, before I post the results, but apparantly this place is for deadly serious topics only.

well its gonna be 8th electric umm a custom chasis? maybe a xray? saddle mounted cells running 6cell?

cockwork
 

sounds like a WIND UP car to me powered by COCKWORK:p

I reckon a HB Ve8

and Marvin I agree, some right pessimistic buggers about, it might be Monday but cheer up you cynics!!:p

A ve8 with shiney ally chassis?

That's more like it!

There will be a Ve8 aluminium chassis conversion coming out from RC-Monster at some point, that also allows easy use of their slipperential. That's not it though. I would like a look at that when it's released, to go on my Ve8.

I've had an 808 already, and fancied something a bit different this time around - they are too good (and therefore boring), so it's not that.

Closer with your last guess Battle_axe.

Unfortunately it's not a wind up car powered by cockwork, but that would be pretty cool. Just hope there are no sharp edges!

A polka dot dress?
:thumbsup:

I know what it is. it's a ve8 with wings so you can fly around the track. Or you are going say somthing silly like the earth is round.:woot:

your converting the ansmann vapor :P

Erm, definately not.

Actually, the Earth is spherical...

It's not that different!

And, no, I'm not converting an Ansmann Vapor...

hmm a mp9? that or the TRF 8th that would be well sexy

Not an MP9, no...

the tamiya then?

Yep a BL conversion of the 1/8 TRF buggy or truggy I reckon!

...Maybe...

























































...Maybe not...

come on dude get some pics up

Put us out of our misery and show us something special!

Hi Simon
Spoke to your brother at work party and he told me it was his Tamiya truggy:o

No, not quite, it's actually an oblate spheroid i.e. it's kind of compressed from north and south, and bulges at the equator, due to the rotation of the earth.


You learn something new everyday!

If it's a Tamiya buggy can you do one for me??

Had no luck finding any for them, and Tekno seem to have shelved their plan for one too..

:thumbsup:
