Driver figure, what did you do to it?

Post by tiger1 »

Older aluminium tub RC10 always come with a lexan driver figure. I almost never see people install it. :D

What did you do with it?

I simply store it up and did nothing. Sounds silly to have it in the car. :roll:

What do you think? :o

i didnt see many people use them over the years when i did i always thought they looked cool. i have used them once in a while .I think it gives your ride that COOList 8), i took time on my ride loooook. iv got a bunch in a box i usually did one up then used him from car to car. u can talk to them at races tell him your race plan hoping maybe he could get u out of trouble in a race :P. UMMM ya i know thats crazy and it never worked----kinda fun though :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I also tried talking with the driver about race tactic :lol: , sometime even on my 2ch radio, but that little guy has a mind of his own. :roll: That is why I am asking about what you do with those driver figures, I wanna get a new driver, will call Jensen Button next. :mrgreen:
