the weapon otion parts seem to be far more numerous and common than the motors but almost every stockist of the crushgears should have them or would have had them…

knowing aussie toy distibuters a box of option parts would contain one or two of the motor packs, toyworld or toys r us are your best bet…

[z-beam]

thanx guys.

looks like the last thing i did was take some bad photos! the focus was pointed at the furthest part of the car.ahh well i was real tired…

better take some more later.

the hi-spin motor has a warning:

continuous use for 5 minutes the motor will become so hot it has a danger of burning you and melting the plastic body of the crush gear…

imagine this thing in a z. these motors are designed for use with only 2 aa’s.

i think i just found the new speed king!

i think i should grab a few of these whenever i see them…

[z-beam]

has anyone ever contacted this place?

i will tomorrow, to see if they are still open and to get some more info… been a looooooong time tho.

[z-beam]

what other local attractions are close by?

so a late afternoon meetup then?

[z-beam]

well i tried sanding it back, and it got rid of the bumps but also way to many layers of paint.
the choices were to do it ALL again or choose a second colour for the roof section.

the second option appealed to me more so here it is… the finished product!

check out tha dice!!!

check out the original pics of the interceptor you lucky b@stard dave!

did i mention you are a lucky b@stard?

[z-beam]

only going to bring a 6-pack to share around…

thanx for the info guys! so who am i going to get to meet?

[z-beam]

thats awesome betty! i love the tank section, its cool the way you can explore your house from the comfort of the loungeroom.

you did great with the soundtrack, matching the build up with the tank action and then as soon as the track picks up so does the speed!

[z-beam]

so we are meeting up at templestowe then?

who does have a mini-z still?

what other scales do the melbourne crew race with?

can i bring beer to the track?

[z-beam]

absolutly nothing… xcept beer!

[z-beam]

what scale are you talkin kitsune?

if its that bumpy it sounds like a day would be wasted attemting to race! sounds like when i get there (the 6th) i should take every oppurtunity to scope out a nice smooth and big enough racing area.

all we need is a bunch of litre bottles filled with water to race around, if the tracks in melbourne are all suited to larger than z and x-mod scale.

i’ll be staying in coburg at a freinds place, anyone live out that way?
