I've found a carpet track near me for 1/12 race cars so it's time to build a runner. Thanks to Gomachav I now have one of his beautiful new RC12E chassis for this project. This will be a mix of old and new. I'll be using modern servos and a 2.4ghz reciever but with a resistor speed control and vinta...

Nice slot car too! I've been thinking of collecting these as well. Arrgh! Another hobby to blow money on.

That's an awesome car hugger! Did you also restore the chassis? Would love to see it. They also made the IMSA Chevy Monza for 1/12. Wish I had one! http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/Jagdgeschwader2/DekonMonza1.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/Jagdgeschwader2/214291-1000-0.jpg

Nice collection drurb! I've got one so far though it's not in the fancy carbon fiber pattern. I'll save it for a winter project.

Thanks Jake! I do like my cars to be capable of running even if they will be shelfers.

You have to promise to take pics and video tho

Yes! PM sent.

Omg when I first saw the car move I thought you were on asphalt! I about died! When I saw it was carpet I was OK again lol Never! That gives me the chills just thinking about it. :shock: This car will probably never touch the ground or carpet again after this. I just picked up this parts car for my...

And a poorly shot and edited video of me doing stupid things with a rare car.

With the exception of a body this car is done! I ran it in our conference room at work last night and had a blast! Really couldn't open up the throttle on it as there's just not enough room up there ,but the difference between this car and the 12e is obvious. The handling is impressive and she has a...

WoW! That's an awesome find man! I can't wait to see this car cleaned up and running again. I'll have to start searching Craigs list now that I've seen this!

Coming soon! A fully functional RC12i. Full photo shoot and video to follow.

Nice! I need one in case another pro panther finds me. I have 3 of the 5 so far....I just know I'll need a body I edited the post above, he has a 1/12 Osella now too Oooh! I'll be ordering that 1/12 body in just a sec. If you want that 1/10 Osella I'll send it to you. It's unsuitable for what I had...
