      the car itself is almost the same as a bit in size but the rear axle won’t interchange with a bit and it looks like the motor is hard wired. The body slots are slightly smaller too. Not good for batteries 6 needed in total.

      JUST for you tech heads out there I took a picture of the circuit board. No plastic cover on this one either.On careful inspection a 100mah Ni-Mh battery is inside. Not a ni-cad.

      These cars are controlled via radio frequency like the rest. The manufaturing company is Smartland, you can find them here:

      Smartland also produces the Micro Combat Cars, try to stay away from those! They are very slowstarted with a better top speed, I would personally see combat cars the other way around, quick start and lower top speed.

      Im sure I replied to this earlier, weird! and my pics were there last night, I can’t work it out.

      Unfortunately nothing is compatible with a tomy bit. The car is the same trackmaster, slow to start but quite fast top end. It’s also real smooth running. I still prefer the bits though.

      Spanky, unfortunately they dont have the same size fitting but I’m sure if you got hold of a shell you could make one. I’ve been looking at your mould project at tinyrc I’m real interested in making my own too. When you get a tutorial up with all costs and stuff maybe you can let me know. I will be a regular poster here. I have a new mini cooper shell which fits a bit and I want to make a copy of for my mate. Also I want to make a vw camper shell for him and one for myself and a proper beetle shell!(not the new one). Did tou see my pics of the bmw shell? It’s quite detailed so a copy in resin would be good and the inside could be adapted for a bit real easy just cut the proper size slots in. I’ve just got to find a place in england that sells the silicone and the resin. The mould seems straight forward to make. Theres a model store close to me but I don’t know if they stock that sort of stuff. Just one question? Would silicone sealant (that is for used for sealing cracks) be any good for the mould? My mate makes and fits plastic window frames so I can get loads of that sort of silicone for free. anyway I’ve typed far too much catch u laterz

      If anyone knows how to show pics in the threads please tell me.
