Following a break from Tamiya and dabbling with large scale petrol and slash's thanks to Kev (the rev) selling me a Toyota GrB I have started collecting Tamiya stuff again.
Only got back into RC after losing my driving license on medical grounds. While driving I owned and rode/drove GSXR750, RD500LC, RD350YPVS's, several Ford RS Turbos, -Escorts and Fiesta, R5 Turbo's all at speed and enjoyed every minute; I fondly remember sitting waiting for cars to race against my bikes on my way home from work. Fastest car driven modified 4WD Ford Sapphire Cosworth with a 350BHP chip/mods @150MPH, Bike RD500LC @145MPH. .
Fed up with rubbish 'bonus' features given in re-re kits that are no more than cheap bearings and rubbish wheels, WHY OH WHY do people buy overpriced rere Bruisers when they could buy two usable originals instead???
