I have a few items I would consider calling rare. Firstly, the Brimod prototype car. It's 1 of 1. 80676807_10159201759436258_566915977762045952_n.jpg The Pinkomo chassis set is certainly the only one I have ever seen, and the Concept Car 4wd RC10 is also one of only a couple I have seen. I have only...

Still going with this slow burner, but getting there! It is one I have to get absolutely right.

1986 Mardave Meteor I notice there has only ever been one Meteor entered into BOTM, and that was by DerbyDan in 2016 (getting the win). This was my first official race car, bought in very early 1987 for indoor carpet racing at Perry Common Buggy Club, UK. This was touted as a budget racer (£49.99) t...

This is one of the best builds i have seen in a long time. Really well executed.

I am slowly gathering parts up to enable me to build another car, which recently took a huge step forward with the discovery of some original chassis parts in a toolbox in the old Pb workshop. Everything for this car seems to be virtually impossible to find. If anybody else has some parts available ...

Plus a nice period photo from Jan ‘84.
Whiffle wheels??

I do love a bit of Playtron.

LurkingCAT is exactly right. Quite hard to find full sets of them. The original ‘mini spikes.’ I buy them whenever I see a pair come up for sale. Fronts or rears. I have them on many of my cars you will notice.

…. from the base of the last bottle of water I drank at the time….! The perfect solution.

I can only see there being one winner here this month, but then saying that, I’ve always been a Yoke guy….

Some great info, thanks guys. So the timeline fits at least.

This is the car in question. Who would have run this at Romsey off Road worlds in 1987? RC10 rear wishbones?

Insanely rare.

Not been on here for a while or really into much RC-wise but these are too cool not to post. An old journalist friend has loaned me his album of personal pictures from the Romsey Worlds in 1987. I have seen one thread requesting pictures of this car but not much else - these shots are previously uns...

Unseen pictures. I absolutely love these cars!

Glad you like them. An old RC journalists has sent me his personal photo album from the event so I have really great quality pictures of most of the top cars. An absolute treasure.
