A Berry six pack F1 link. Has a nice ring to it. It would be pretty cool if there was a vintage F1 class for people to run. It would be something different for sure. Heck, the 1/10th Vintage Trans Am Series ( touring car platform ) sure has become popular everywhere. Wouldn't it be really cool having 7 or 8 six wheelers with P34 bodies racing together on the same ozite for the F1 enthusists. And with the way mine handeled back in the day..........OMG!! I think I'll ask Brian to do up the Carbon Fiber parts in Catia like my original 6 wheeler but a link version. Oh Boy!! Another car project. I'll have to get started on the clay for a new P34 body. Just think.....I could have a P34 conversion kit lets say based off of the 200mm WGT platform. Brushless/Lipo. Now the wheels are turning ........all 6 of them!! Looks like I have a lot of work ahead of me. I'm pretty sure I could pull this thing off. And you would be my 1st customer.

Tell Lou I said hi. I'll post a pic of my " Vintage Tyrell 6 wheeler " for you soon.
It's really going to bring you back. I still have the 6 cell SCR's taped in the car, LOL.

Lou Vanderwey has an amazing Indoor Carpet facility attached to his house in Dorchester, right off the 401 just past London, a little less than 2 hours from Detroit. He had a Canadian Tamiya TCS Race two weeks ago so there is some interest in Formula 1 again. In Canada they still allow F103 205MM Cars which run heads up with the F104 180MM Cars. I'm trying to get Lou to run a Vintage 205MM F1 Class using basic TCS Rules and then have a Modern 180MM F1 Class using F104 based cars with 17.5 Brushless Motors with 1 Cell Lipo. I'm building an Exotec option car to play around with.

Maybe you should get into the F1 Business with a Berry Six Pack F1 Link. I'll take one. Talk to you soon.

How about posting a picture of your six wheeler with the body on?
