looks like a scalextric track. i think those are actual 1/32 scale cars (super detailed cars to, they're cool). i hear they're the popular slot car set up in Europe. never seen or heard of a track for them over here state side (outside of a privet track in a garage or something)...
It's 1/32 scale Carrera Evolution...

did some RC'ing this weekend. a while back i got a really good deal on an HPI wheely king with no body. i had originally intended to build a custom chassis and use the drivetrain for a custom "scaler" build. i lost interest (as usual) and just stuck the body on the wheely king. it's a parma lunch box body (just a lexan version of the hard plastic tamiya body). had to custom fab up some body mounts. here it goes.
made an adapter that goes on the stock body mounts, its 1mm fiber glass with HPI sprint sport 2 body mounts mounted sideways.
and i painted it today.

Nice built!
Have this Revell Corvette on the shelf for over a decade now. A buddy who lost interest handed it over to me.
Plan is to build an aged, semi gloss, "de-chromed" drag version. May be one day I'll post some progress here.
However there's a good chance that even this forum will no longer exist before this might happen... :lol:
Saw it's big brother at the Lowes today:

Not necessarily. In the US, you can get a HD permit or tag due to disabilities that don't affect your ability to drive or even walk for that matter. They issued me a handicap tag due to my military-related disability and I can drive to the store and walk into it without issue. My wife gets mad when I won't use the parking space and we have to park really far out and hike in :)
went to school with a guy who had a handicap placard in his car because he was legally deaf.
when asked wtf is up with that his translator told us that deaf people qualify for them because with the lack of ability to hear it's dangerous to walk through the parking lot. :shock:
Wow, that's a great selection of some super awesome ratfink stuff! Are those yours?
No, not mine. :( Just stumbled across the pic while browsing the web.
No idea if they're available over here at all. I have never seen these kits before. :o
iv built a few paper cars. VW bus. lancer evo 7, can't remember them all. sadly i still have them put away in the closet :roll:
I printed it out. I'm building that sucker!
post pic's when done
Have not tackled the Bug yet. Instead here's a pic of a still unfinished tiny Star Wars cardboard/paper thingy I did some time ago...
the pencil being there puts things into scale. and holy hell, when you said tiny you weren't kidding! :shock:
Inspired by the Hot Wheels posts: my smallest Bug so far - 1/87 "Salzburg" Rallye 1302 S
huh, old school rally bug. that's cool.
Wow, that is simply incredible!
I was amazed when I first saw it and then I saw that engine, that's incredible!
