For me is the Team Durango, very hi-tech and a lot attention to detail on design.
Maybe one day I’ll get one.

That durango car sure is sweet, but there is no place around here to race off road :(
There are lots of oval tracks around. I'd love to get something from dynotech, they have some trick looking rides

all are way beyond my driving and setup skill.

an employee of the guy we build all of the oldsmobiles for, he has one. he ordered the t/a hood from dodge for it, so i'll be painting that and the top of the front cover that goofy textured flat black in a couple weeks.

I'm definitely getting a Challenger. It'll be about a year from now if I can wait that long. It's going to be a white R/T Classic with the stripes down the side.

And sorry for taking this thread in a direction that was not intended...

nope. they were a short run. this is why the one i have is a shelfer. well that and it just looked too pretty to run. :roll: i might pic a used one up later and make a runner out of it but that wont be any time soon most likely.

There's not a chance in hell I'd run that thing! If it got scratched I'd never forgive myself. If we're talking lavish modern vehicles(and I actually thought this was full scale too before I opened it). I'd be torn between these. The first one because I'd love to have a ridiculously over-priced piece of Tamiya history(kinda like the Avante, but still not as cool). My second choice 'cause my E-Savage is just too much fun and this one would have to be awesome. And all that black makes me drool. :mrgreen:

There's a couple of cheaper ones I would like as project starters, but none when it would come down to having to run them in stock form. (Not that there's many vintage cars I 'd want to run in stock form either actually.)

A tenth technology predator would be nice, maybe the new shumacher 4WD buggy, and I was bummed when Hot Bodies trashed their plans to produce that sweet 2WD proto-type.
The ULTIMA RB5 based stadium truck would be high on my whishlist if there was any kind of regular racing I could attend too.
Crawlers look like cool project cars also but the driving doesn't appeal to me

Make mine red with the R/T stripes over the fenders.

'Vader black looks absolutely wicked, but I told myself I wouldn't get another black vehicle...too hard to keep pretty.

'Makes a Mustang guy want to defect to the dark side... :twisted:

Oh yeah...(sorry was lost in the Challenger thing)...um, my personal favorite modern R/C vehicles: Re-re 'Scorcher & Traxxas Slash.
