very early eighties beatties in blackpool used to put barriers up on the road and have open days running the tamiya's for the public just outside the hounds hill shopping centre,the obligatory sand scorcher and tyrell 6 wheelers etc were wheeled out to the little green eyed monsters (me) delight and demo'ed.soon after the counter top vids where introduced and many an hour was spent gawping at rc nirvana. most of my school bags where beatties car bags and some of my other freinds! (how sad lol) I recently got one from ebay and used it for my hand luggage on my honymoon, very sad.still managed to sneak my tbo2 along in the bottom of it below my personals ;)the first I actually drove was an old battered brat I managed to convince the owner that it would be a great idea to let me have a go and Ive been hooked ever since,23 years!

[)]transmitters do infact breed at night when you turn the lights out! I only had 3 last night but this morning I had 5 or 6 I find selling them as batch jobs on ebay can more often or not get enough money to get a second hand reciever, just keep the best trannys for yourself! and dont forget dont feed them after midnight!! []

just had a similar expriance but as luck would have it I had documented everything I had posted and when I presented the guy with the evidence he chickened out! but he still managed to get nearly £50 worth of parts out of me[] feel for you guy!

I just tell her its the same car just with a new shell but now I have 20 of that same car with different shells its getting difficult lol
