I think the touring car class should be abolished and replaced with an F-1 class

Those are some incredible looking cars... I'd give anything to have one, even money, if I had any, .

Anyone who is serious about R/C doesn't have a good looking wallet, I think I have some crumpled up dollar bills in my pocket.....
You all should definitely attend the KOPROPO GP, it's going to be awesome!!! If you can't make it to the event, check the thread on the MLP X10P4 touring car for track dates and times for demos. Thanks for the interest!

Hi,

That's one sweet F1 ca you have. to bad we don't have a place to race them around here..... I suppose we could try to get a class going a CEFX but I really don't think it would take off
After lurking around your website. I finally remmember who you are. we met at Scotty's during a Long weekend race. I was running a 103 with a Toyota GT1 body on it and you were kind enough to help me out with some handling problems. I was busy trying to keep my son going in sedans as I bought one of the first TC3's that Scotty had that weekend ( we were running a Kawada SV10). that was a while ago like somewhere around 98.

Thanks

Tell everyone it's a prototype only given to exceptional people that understand about the details of F1 racing.
They are Vintage HPI Wheels for the Camaro and GT 350 but here ya go MXRICH on a F206F1 2WD Car!

So have Team MLP get some of these and see if they work better than the Junk Tamiya Tires

Yes they will work on a F201!

They are from HPI and you can find them at your local hobby shop or ask them to order them for you.

or you can go to tower hobbies and get them there under HPI Camaro ok or GT350

They are actually American Racing Torque Trust look alike wheels, sorry but I'm a classic car guy and I had to be correct here.
