Default History Question.

Dirty Harry in the Dead Pool.

I'm tryin to recall who drove the car in the movie. Wasn't it Jay Halsey? And wasn't the car RC10 with vette 66 body?

I'm pretty sure I've read something about this here, but search does not return any useful links if you're not searching for ProLine tires.
I'm also sure I read something about this in old issue of RCCA. If anyone remembers which issue please let me know.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it was a Parma '63 Split Window Vette body.

And over dubbed nitro engine sounds

Actually, I thought it had 10 cells in the chassis...The info behind that chassis was in an RCCA article that compared the old gold-tub RC10 to the B4

If I remember right he had 2 or 3 different versions not just electric but gas too. There was a show on it wayyy back, I don't remember the name or the RC car issue. It's probably sitting in my closet...
