Hi all ,I'm new to the forum but not new to the world of rc cars , I used to race them back in the 90's and now looking at getting back into 1/10 racing .

I sold all my gear yrs ago but , I've always had model cars ,nothing that special at the moment ,original tamiya hornet , lunchbox ,tamiya tl01 and a hpi baja:thumbsup:

Roscopeco gave me the heads up on this great forum ,cheers Kev

Welcome back - I started again back in March after last racing 1/10th electric regularly back in the 90s!

You've had a RS1600i in the past as well I think ;-) recognise your username from the RSOC web site I think:thumbsup:

Welcome along Kev :)

Welcome. I recognise your username from Passion ford and the S1 forum.

I've had my fair share of Cosworths and RS Turbos too!:thumbsup:

Nick are you the chap that gave me advice on Passionford a while ago ?

Quite possibly. I had a S1 on Rondells if that jogs any memory's for you? And a white Escort Cosworth.

The car doesn't but I have a s1 , there was a tamiya Cosworth thread and we all commented on it with our own RC cars :)

Yes I remember.:)

My old S1 part way through its resto

Oh bloody hell yes I remember that car from the s1 forum very well !! I think I even tried to buy your wheels once .

Here's mine

I've not even lifted the cover on it for nearly a year ...... Interest is at an all time low :(

Haha I got like that and sold up, loosing garage space was a contributing factor! Good to see you on here though and the S1 looks great, give me a heads up if you get an urge to sell the RS. I'm always looking for an excuse for another garage ornament! :thumbsup:

I get the urge to sell it all the time but whether I actually will or not is another matter haha

Kev's got a lovely RS1600i with a turbo conversion ..... My ideal mk3 escort :thumbsup:

I think the RS1600i is the better looking of the two mk3 RS's :drool:

Haha , bloody hell , yeah I still have my Rs16i ,I haven't touched it for 3yrs it's just sat in the carcoon , I know it's wasted sat there but free time is very limited ,if I start racing which I'm more than likely too the 16i will take more of a back seat , good too see some rs boys on here :thumbsup:

I think this is the last pic I took .

Looks like there's a few of us from Passion ford then. Happy days :thumbsup:

Lovely, I remember this one :thumbsup: I'm AD-RS1600i on those forums.

Welcome back to the RC hobby, enjoy :thumbsup:

Ha ,yeah small world I remember you from the forums , do you still have your 16i :)

Yes, but unfortunately it has been sat in storage since 2003 so needs restoration now :( Never seem to have the time or money, I guess it is the usual story for most :-s :blush:

I've owned mine since I was 20, i'm 37 now so, bit of a bind to get rid of it as a result. Its like a time capsule from my youth! :thumbsup:
