Default Orange Shells

As most of you know I tend to stick to a distinctive colouring scheme and for those of you who have raced with me since 1992 you will know I have ran with that particular scheme since then, ORANGE

I would just like to say to all those of you who are popping up with Orange shells, I thank you. ORANGE is the way forward.

Every meeting I have been to this Winter (which is Worksop and Bury Metro) there has been a steady increase in the use of the colour, have I started a trend??

You are a hero.

I am thinking that I need a bright shell for when the outdoor season starts (visibility in the mud). I have a tin of Flo' Yellow, but id rather have Orange.

Some colours just become associated with RC stars...

Kinwald has his black, yellow and blue...

Masami has his green...

Pavidis has his good ol' red, white and blue...



Jonesy has his orange...

It isn't a surprise that it caught on dude, it is the best colour ever... what I don't understand is how the "no windows" design never caught on...

Jonesy - CAT
Me - CAT
Some other dude - CAT
Some other dude (2) - B4 (No window masks JUST orange haha!)

Talking

I have an orange shell (tourer - nasty word to you lot I know LOL) but it is decaled with GMB logo/decals as I'm a GMB shop steward,I call this my 'rep mobile' ( I know this will be hard for most of the males on here to work out LOL )

I prefer to paint my shells flouro or neon colours, particularly pink and yellow so my 1/10 tourer will be easily recognizable to anyone.
