Nothing major, but for the sake of being a total fuss-pot, I was just wondering if the Tamiya Models list...

http://tamiyaclub.com/cars.asp

...(which is an invaluable resource, and the only one of its kind on the web that I know of) should be made a bit more accurate where possible, in terms of car names, spelling etc.

e.g.

http://tamiyaclub.co...p?id=3 "Tyrrel P34 Six Wheeler".
It's actually "Tyrrell" Racing - http://en.wikipedia..../Tyrrell_Racing

And...

http://tamiyaclub.com/car.asp?id=43 "Grasshopper I"
http://tamiyaclub.com/car.asp?id=47 "Hotshot I"
etc

I think we should call them what's on the box.
They're "The Grasshopper" and "Hotshot". No "I" necessary.
The sequel models have "II", but it seems unnecessary to refer to the originals as "I", when they were never actually called that.

I'm sure there are more :P

cheers,
H.
