I like the Procat with the Phil Davies style paint. Is it race ready? Can we see a clip of it going round the track?

Is there a particular one you want a close up of ?, as i only have the following two pics

Procat with Tanaplan chassis, new black trans side plates, MMS layshaft & diffs, Kyosho option house shocks (just needs gold turnbuckles and a bumper to finish)

Image


This one was an ebay purchase which did not need much work (see next photo for how it came)
new outer trans housing (old one had a bolt in it), replaced XLS shock mount, fitted original layshaft, new steering pivots, bit of a polish

Hope these ok

Hi Luke
That was another ebay purchase, did not need much work on it. It is almost ready to run, just needs radio system. Was going to go with 2.4Ghz instead of the 27Mhz which was fitted. I am more of a strip, rebuild and display person, i do hope to get round to running one on some nearby waste ground though.

Cheers

Nah, run it on a proper track :D

The 2.4Ghz is excellent, no more interference! Plus the "sport" models are quite reasonable - under £40.

Nice collection John...I really like the paint scheme on the XLS...simple but not to simple...are you missing a few shells?

This is Phil Davies' car in an old article. I'd love a shell like this one. The design is really clean, looks suitably retro and fits the Procat nicely.

Hi Mike

Not at the moment, the two without shells have used bosscat shells. The problem is the lack of plastic wing buttons. Maybe i'll get a few replica shells for them but it's all down to funding.
