Tamiya F1 cars

In the process of getting an FA13 Footwork up together and thought about a Williams body for blitzboy to spray (same F102 chassis).

Errr died at the potential cost of the shell

But the thought of Red 5 properly done, does appeal.

that'd look amazing with a fully authentic colour scheme. and that shell really suits the proportions of the f103.

funnily enough, I was chatting with the fella that used to drive that actual car (with the number 5, in red) the weekend before last....

Mr Mansell, ah cool I expect he'll be in Le Mans now to follow Leo in the Team Mondena F430. I'm not going this year and am already

Yup that's what I was thinking so I may just bite the bullet, hell I've spent £1k on this stuff in the last couple of months, what's another £90!! LOL

Got new Carbon fibre chassis coming etc. Just need to get decent tyres etc. Going for a number of the hop up options. Benefit is that I'll still have the original parts.. It'll have to be sprayed and stickered up by one of the artists on here to make sure it's perfect. The car will only run indoors in my lounge when it's done. Just need a small Novak, LRP ESC and a Spekturm RX to go with one of my mini KO servos.

i'll post some pics this week..

Got a Losi XX to prepare for racing as a replacement for my B4

Also thought of getting the Mclaren Senna, but needs to be a full kit with stickers etc.

£90, I'm going to wait as the UK ones are going for circa £50/60 from what I've seen and spoken to Tony's parts. There is a Tyrell which I may go for, but am willing to hold out and look elsewhere..

I am interested, but not at that price..

Any pics of your cars etc

[Team No Idea]

No problem.
Yeah i can dig out some pics. I think the nicest 2 in my collection have to be the NIB Williams FW14 and the Fully hopped up, brand new F102 chassis with diffuser, rear light, carbon rear axle etc complete with NIB Mclaren MP4/5B body set. The Mp4/5b was never made as a complete kit but looks awesome when built up......Just not sure if i should get it painted or leave it in the box...lol. ill put some pics up later.
