Falcon#5 594 Posted February 14, 2011 Didn't get a chance to get to Mitchell Park on the weekend. (Split a radiator tank in wifes car, which reduced us to the one car) Headed down that way on Friday, so will have a look and get some pics. My brother lives that side of town, and if we can dig up his Academy Road Runner II (Hornet/Grasshopper copy), we may have another one in the ranks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wanted to see what the actual track looked like. Found a few, but the ones you linked from rctech give the best detail. Mitchell Park has to be better than my spare room cupboard!

Thommo 1201 Posted February 17, 2011 Justin, Perth WA. (Steve, your not alone)! 36 a new TC member and starting to see the trend here! I built Tamiya in the 80s/90s and just got back in with a DB01. Then freakishly tracked down my original Astute along with an Egress chassis, (check out my Egress Bin Find thread in Vintage). The Astute will soon follow. http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=61049 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
