Traxxas Sprint Car

[Coelacanth]

Nobody has yet mentioned how weird those look without a driver doll. Of all the car models that would seem to require one...it's THIS.

I'm not sure what looks dumber actually driving around...a modern cab-forward body that looks nothing like a real car, or an open cockpit vintage car model sans driver.

Of course you're right on that but I'll go one step further.
Can you imagine driving the Losi Promoto without a rider figure?

they both look dumb, but cab-forward is the undisputed heavyweight world champion of looking dumb.

WW1 fighter pilot figures are readily available to serve as driver of the 20s sprint car. Nothing fixes cab-forward.

Without a driver, maybe it would be an even earlier version of K.I.T.T. than K.A.R.R., with this being the Knight Industries One Thousand: K.I.O.T.

Eddie Rickenbacker would be a good choice

I found one locally for $600. Almost want to get it and see if I fall in love with it, or just flip it if I don't.

These cars need the animated driver dudes like this...

Those are probably $500 cars but the Snap-On name tripled the price. Same goes for their tools...
