yeah that was the debut race for the TQ wheels and Silicone shock oil from Associated. That race was so HOT!!! Thats where we found out how bad the Robinson Racing shock oil changed with temperature. I ran an Ultima O in stock and the R in modified I think my first Nationals.

The White #6 was Kris Moore. I think that is the Ultima based car he ran at the Reedy Race that year that he made with a Dremel.

Page 92 in particular. Just a scan would be fine. My dad claims he has it... he just can't put his finger on them right now.
There's a pic of me at 15. :D

The kids are getting their feet wet with some Tamiya builds for now. They've both flown the Blade mCX micro helicopter and I have the Parkzone micro Cub they will be trying soon.
All my flying stuff is still at my folk's house... and all the radio...

I know it's a long shot fellas, but it's probably January or February 1988 issue Radio Race Car.

I've seen the Model Car Magazine scans on here (great) but would love to read the RRC one again!

Thanks :)

Too bad Google translate only goes down a part ways.
I figured out that with my browser (firefox) set up, I can refresh the page a a few times and the translator makes it through. It appears the page load process get's timed out.

I think it may...

Hi all.
I remember a car on the cover of a late 80's rcmc magazine, I'm pretty sure it was an optima pro or turbo, was tested on a beach and from memory was red faded in to white paint. Can anyone remember this mag edition? Or have a picture of it?...

Last post

interesting - was somehow under the impression that only one mold had been made... I stand corrected :!:
