wow!

I remember as a 12 year old looking at the stealths in the "spyshots" in magazines of the time and remebering how much i wanted one.

my secound rc10 i did a home made "stealth conversion". wish i didnt now, as i buggered up the graphite chassis.

I cant thank you enough for allowing me to bring back some childhood memorys.

Thank you so much Steve.
You're pictures show with great detail the handiwork that went into these cars, and makes me appreciate what the engineers achieved at the time even more.

Thanks once again so much for taking the time with this.

Kuddoz to you Steve, I received the book yesterday and it's awesome. The only thing that dissappointed me is that the paper is mat, shiny paper would have been even better, but don't pay attention, I'm just about to puff my purist pipe. THANK YOU!!!

I can figure out most of the rear of the 1989 Masami Hirosaka's World's car but what makes up the front. If anyone can give me a list I would like to make it as a replica of this awsome vehicle.

Any chance of the 1991 Worlds car picture being posted :)? I'm think that's the one I copied the chassis on my car off. I used to have an article about it in a magazine which I may still have. It was a factory alloy chassis cut down like mine, Masami claimed it was better than the carbon chassis as the flex helped keep the car stable over the bumps. I also have the entire 1989 world champs on VHS tape and I used to have the 1991 also but don't have that tape anymore. That's a pity because it was filmed alot better and a much nicer track than the 1989 event. I'll have a look for the magazine tonight and see if it has survived the various moving house cleanups
