What Remote Control Car do you drive? interested to know what everyone has got, i'll start off with mine.
Kyosho GP Spider MKII World Cup Edition
Nothing sounds better then a two stroke engine changing into 2nd gear at 30,000rpm+

I chose the 1/8 scale Landmax series from Kyosho. I was going to get a TOMMI Lancer but opted for the legendary weapon (in it's time) Lancia Stratos. The extra clearance also help make up my mind. I think I now regret not getting the TOMMI lancer setup due to him not racing for Mitsu anymore. Q: Why dont the bastards make a Carlos Sainz edition GT-FOUR dammit!!!!!
Mine also has a 2 speed box which is highly recommended.

I've got a few old cars gathering dust, this is the only digital photo I've got though..
I can't even remember the name of the Tenth Technology on road car, but the others are a CRC 6-pack 1/12 and a Yokomo YR4M2J.
I've also got an Associated RC10L in a box somewhere, a TenthTech XK98-M off roader and a CRC Bullet in many bits...

pic for you guys to enjoy,
Yokomo? never heard of it and if its old the parts you are after are probably discontinued but i'll ask at work on saturday if they can get a hold of the parts,
do you have the part numbers? that may be useful.

I haven't been in there in a while, but, they used to have a fair bit of Yokomo stuff.
