For me, it boiled down to a choice between two. They were very different cars but both had very eye-catching paint jobs and neat & tidy under the body. What tipped the scale between the two was one had neater electronics and more complete electronics under the shell.

Another tough field for sure! 8) Your PC10 (PanCake) cars always stand out from the crowd. I had a hard time choosing. There are 3 there that are extremely close for me. Very nice entries, all! 8)

Mate I love both the entries you have lodged so far, they have that racer look and are executed in a way I would never have thought could look so killer... Chin up mate they are bloody good and I would love to have either...

It's like choosing between your kids. All of these builds are amazing and unique in their own way. I really like the black wheels on a couple of the cars. The nitro rc10 is amazing.

Reggie, indeed, in a French mag for a late-version Mugen Athlete. This body was a special order done by the master, PRP, a couple of years ago.

He did the original one for the Mugen about 20yrs ago, so this was a huge privilege for me :oops: I'm lucky enough to also have met him in person at the racetrack and he's a really nice fellow :)

Looks like they took it from the 1990 Suzuki DR line.
