Jimmy, you may want to give Tamiya some coverage.

You should see it - the photos there are actually the old car. Old is relative tho, since it was only yesterday that car was made. Todays car is quite different. For sure he's got ideas bigger than the tools and materials he has to finish them trackside, but he brought two girlfriends with him so to me he's a legend.
Manolis didn't want photos inside the car - but it's certainly very unique and anyone that brings a self-built car to the Euros is a hero to me.

Tamiya? haha, well fair point I guess.

Great mix of cars in there, 8 different cars in the top 10, plus saw Kev Lee had a few top 10 rounds in the Aero (I assume anyway!) too!

Like the Baldrick shell on Hupo's car too, and all the white ball cups/blue turnbuckles (anyone know what make they'd be to fit the Tam?), tempts me to go back to the 501 for max bling!!

That'll be the DC Vodka.. Does incredible things to you.

I had a sip and built a Concorde in the garden once!

Brian Preddy was an early casualty - terminating the life of his Losi XXX4 in the very first practice round. Luckily Brian had a XX4 on stand by and used this for the rest of the day.

That'll be my xxx4. What did he do to the poor thing?????

It sounds like you're getting it back in a plastic bag.

I'm sure its not that bad, maybe there aren't many Losi spares over there (new chassis....?).

Random thought, any ideas why the meeting is ending on a Saturday instead of a Sunday like a lot of other bigger meetings?
