I'm not a slot car guy, but I am a nerd that occasionally likes Star Wars references. This felt like a bargain that I needed.

Mainly cause I wanted the documentation to see what they were. As suspected, they are a capacitor.

Coincidence that these two showed up on the same day. At first glance, they may seem similar, but they are absolutely nothing alike! The built car may have instantly become my most favorite RC I own. :wink:

I gots me sum goodies today too. Some NOS out of package factory tires for my HPI RS4MT and a pair of cheapo Amazon servos, one for the RS4MT and one for my up-n-coming OG Blackfoot refurbishment. This one is my first hobby grade, got it for Christmas when I was probably 14. Beat the snot out of it and just got it back from my brother a few months ago.

Yep, Parma didn't do a lot of great things RC IMO, but advertising was one thing they did very well! Their slot car stuff is great, and the Hemi engine itself is extremely nice!

Homemade chassis and some POS transmission. :D

My first "wireless" RC Car 1986. Mine was broke pretty bad from "bashing", not sure what ever happened to it in the end.
got this with the box for a good price. Electronics are sketchy, might upgrade it because I can.

I had a Honda 3 wheeler before this, but I can't exactly remember which one.

That's what I had, a white Turbo Panther. It was a great little car
