    not cheap but it gets to you in perfect condition!

    still would work out better than buying them locally.

    “There’s also a new Touareg “

    i saw the v10 turbo diesel version (real life) pulling a combine harvester on tv the other week. the best offroader in my mind at the moment…

    i know the curved gutters you mean, i used to use ’em as jumps for my bmx when i was younger around my local town. if your gonna get something to do that get a truck! something that is built to jump…

    (not that i know a thing about larger than 1/32 scale)

    betty, there is a mod at the original QFM mod site that lets you use a bit-racer 7 tooth pinion with any bcg gear set. it is the motor balance mod, basically you need two matching flat pointed screws that fit into the motor bay of the bcg. screw em in untill they angle the motor to get the right amount of mesh between the gears…

    that and do a bit of shaving around where the pinion goes…

    one of my bits run an 8 tooth pinoin! niiice top speed!!!

    sure did paint the gtr2000. it was a combo of a warm red and fiery orange. i used my minature painting techniques on it, to slowly get the colour brighter on all the details i wanted to pick out.

    when i was younger my favorite looking car was a holden torana in that red/orange. the skyline shell was the closest match to the original so i did my best from memory to get the colour as acurate as posible.

    hachi, did you see the Bbeast mounted on the monster chassis yet?

    what do you mean by static?

    they dont roll on as well, e.g. on the track when you accelerate along a streight and let go of the button a tomy motor equiped car will come to a stop pretty quickly compared to a clone motor equiped car. a clone yellow motor useally isnt as fast or powerful as a good tomy 3.0 but on the track the clone yellow will outperform the tomy everytime.

    this ability to allow momentum after power ceases is really important to corner nicely.

    speaking of motors, i found out my favorite combo yesterday.
    perfection blue (4.2) bitracer blue gears(7tooth pinion), super bit charge chassis, black supra body + perfection sbcg blue tyres at the front and sbcg blacks on the rear. the thing flys!

    and the sound it makes is so cool as it winds up to full speed…:evil::evil::evil:

    imagine a traffic jam with hydrogen cars, they would make it sticky like the tropics!
    sydney was bad enough this summer, wait untill these machines hit the road en-masse.

    the other issue is the price of pure water, the sh*t in the taps to full of chlorine, sodium and flouride to be safly used in a fuel cell. and as it is weve got a major shortage of fresh water in most countries globally. imagine what the worlds gonna be like once we start burnin it!

    the only solution would be to create hydrogen stations off the coast using sea water and wind and wave powered generators to do the electrolosis.

    our nation has excelled in the past when faced with a problem, so when the 99.9 cents/litre point is passed im sure something will change.

    howabout the 37c per litre tax the government gets, not to mention the 10c gst on top of that!!!

    some countries are working on a viable hydrogen fuel cell system to replace combustion soon. but i’m not to sure thats a good thing.

    the reason? if we were to replace all the cars on the road with hydrogen burners we wouldnt get any gas pollution, thats a bonus. but what we will get is more heat and water vapor, which equals clouds.
    the greenhouse effect is a problem now, and it takes about six years for cfc’s and other pollutants to reach the ozone layer. there will be huge amounts of heat polution worldwide, which will have a drastic effect on weather.

    about the only thing i can think of is keep usin my bits! they make ozone!
