this is how my F103L looks like

Look hella cool.:nod:

Is F1 useless?
 

Here's something to justify the obsession:)

What is F1's contribution to the world?

"What's that thing on the roof? Oh! Looks like a MP24" also, don't miss the carbon wheel chair photo.

....guys what Tamiya cars have the same gear diff as the Road Wizard. i won one on ebay but sadly the spur is missing teeth and one of the diff gears is also missing.......do any of the late model Tamiya cars have a ball diff that would work???..will 103 diff/rims work on the Road Wizard???.I had one of these Road Wizards when i was 12 so i am stoked to find one again. just need to get it going..........thanks...Matt

PM me, I have a ton of Wizard parts. NOS plastic, gears, all kinds of stuff
I have a few gearsets as well, but I think they are the option gears

More Japanese inspiration........

Is this car pushing or what? Cool!
 

Last Sunday we were racing with the 23T Super Stock, cars look like these, full steering... small turn :)

Cheers

those photos are just plain sick! I had to look twice to see that they were indeed model cars and not real ones. no wonder this F1 stuff is making such a strong comeback. Awesome pics. Absolutely awesome.

nice photography what camera do you used? nice ferrari color scheme as well

Wow, how did they manage to get a nice negative camber on the fronts??

My 103 and 104 keeps coning out..

Looks like an aftermarket front end.
My 104 is setup with 1 degree of camber, and it is coning the tires, but I expect that

Camber in to have more steering? I prefer to run mine 0 camber n 0 toe.better for my sponge tires:)

Yeah for more steering, but I may go to zero because the car is rotating around the front wheels. I ran on carpet this past weekend and when the bite came up it was causing traction roll. that was with running the kit foams all the way around. I think the rear pod on this car is very sensitive in how its set up

Hey BP....can you pm me? I was wondering what you might charge for a painted body and what all info would you need and do i need to ship the body to you or would you get it and i would pay for that also.

F1 decals
 

Well, I took the plunge and ordered these from Hong Kong:

http://cgi.ebay.com/f103-decals-for-...QQcmdZViewItem

Its a good looking basic set, seems same as what comes in a kit. Can do Mclaren, Ferrari (with Marlboro and bar codes), Jaguar and Red bull. Plus, 2 smaller sheets for 1 set each of Bridgestone and Potenza tire decals.

Wonder if he has others like this...fwiw
