Back to movies

Whilst some spend hours making their cars handle as if on rails, I prefer more scale-like qualities. Consequently, my Disco runs with no oil in the dampers and half a pound of lead strapped to the underside of the roof. The only drawback is that when it fall, it falls hard, on the plus side, I think it moves beautifully.

Sorry, this is a Flash movie. - You don't have flash installed.

Moves like a real 4x4. Beautifully built. So need to get myself a CC chassis 4x4.

The music, the setting, the suspension mocement... im filling up! Scale suspension movement on a scale looking car, best combo! Forget the MFU's, get some lead weights bought!

Enjoyed that thanks - the only thing that gives the game away was that a real one would've suffered some bizarre electrical failure during the shoot - other than that, spot on!
