Top notch piece of suspension history! Just love the use of materials, technical solutions and that fantastic gear box. And I have never even held one... Best of compliments!

Fantastic photo shoot and an absolutely lovely car!

På hat med Team Tarmslyng

Nice to hear from a Nordic neighbour! Just for you other guys; Danish is very close to Norwegian and Team Tarmslyng would equal Team Volvulus (messed up bowels). Those team names…

Wow!! What a fantastic display - really nicely laid out & some real 'gems' in amongst those cars - in fact i'm sure we'd be happy to have any one of those cars within our own collections. My personal favourite has got to be the set-up with the wooden race box & Mirage racers - kinda reminds...

Thank you! After working on this project for over a year, I wanted to make the presentation (especially) on this forum more than just a couple of lines and a picture.

Thank You! Nice to be here at last, I've (mis)used this place for too long as a prime source for my own projects without contributing.

Not of much use to most of you, but anyway (I suppose the Norwegian is a bit of a fence to jump, even with google translate). Here are some links. The first one is a cut from a television news report. The cut starts at appr. 3 min and 20 sec (it’s not me talking or driving!). http://www.nrk.no/nett-...

Hi there! The Topcat is SHY's and don't actually know where he's got it from - might be yours! Yep, definately one of my old Topcats. I have pics on file of that paint scheme I did years ago. Nice to see it as being part of your exhibit in a museum :D As stated in the first post, SHY has been of he...

Last batch of pics. Losi 22 is in display for showing what is going on today... The SRB Sand Scorcher is quite special. A Norwegian called Svein Andreassen, a professional mechanics, made SRB mod bits for the commercial market – a Norwegian version of CRP or RCH SRBs. He made long wheel base butterf...

Some more random detail pics. The back in the day picture (1982 or 83) of the Kyosho Circuit 20 (Volvo 343 body) is depicting one of the Curcuit 20s in the exhibition. The red one on display got the 3th place at the first (noticeably bouncing) 1:8 national champs in 1982.

To a certain extent the history of Norwegian 1:12 is Swedish (Mirage, Minicars and Carlsson). In the first national champs in 1981 eighteen of the nineteen top of the list were Swedish cars. One RC12E managed to make it's way in on 13th… The Swedish dominance lasted to RC12I. After 12I the Schumache...

Sorry to say I have been nothing but a spy on RC10talk until now finally registering. Incredible forum – high quality and smack in the butter eye of my field of interests in RC – thanks to all of you! And thanks for having me! My first post on this forum will be a presentation of a new temporary (Ma...
