This a great Idea!!! I would like to see that made. I have a Dick Trickle purple knight mustang, a Tom Reffner Blue knight would be great to. There is pictures and racing on youtube of the mustang under Wausau r/c racers speeday vintage touring. How do we make this happen for a Javelin body? Any Idea's?? Let me know. I know Tom Reffner really good, I could get him to wright a letter to send to any body maker. And he has some other AMC racers that could help maybe.?? I really am a oval VTA racer, but the road racing is getting funner for me. P.S. I have a driver in the mustang with the Captain America Helmet like Trickle had back then. The driver is out of my fx10, the only car with a driver in it right now.

Best thing I have found is one of the many console games Forza, Various Need for Speed games etc . . . some are quick and easy and others are a little more indepth but can do almost anything. Can't remember off the top of my head, but some have the VTA Camero's, Mustangs etc . .

Well I see it like this, Personally I believe all races are equal. Theres genius and idiocy in every race and nationality. We all have made great contributions and we all have our shames. I dont care what color you are, period.
Now about that Flag. About a century and a half ago there were some states that felt like they were being taxed too much and not given a fair share of the represenation in the government. They decided to split from the United States as they had a constitutional right to do so and they were attacked. They fought and they lost. Their battle flag was the stars and bars, known today as the Confederate AKA Rebel flag. The civil war was not about slavery. Really. At least not completely. It was an issue that the south especially struggled with in itself. The Emancipation proclamation wasnt issued until later in the war and it was done to gain the man power of armed slaves.
After the South lost the war new issues sprung up. Black slaves gained freedom and then rights. But they had to fight for those rights and they were treated horribly by a bunch of racist covered in sheets and flying, guess what, the stars and bars. They were ashamed to show their faces but they proudly flew a flag that didnt belong to them. They literally tortured and killed their neigbors of African ancestry. No wonder blacks are offended by the Rebel flag. The Flag itself however today is largely misunderstood.
So hear me when I say that if you believe that you are better than another person because they are a different race than you, then you are a racist. I might also mention that makes you an ignorant punk. So go get a swastika tattoo and give me back my Rebel Flag.
