yeah the machinery was pretty impressive :) everything pre-1992, but some more than others

the RC10 was a true goldtub with 6-gear tranny i think - none of the later Stealth rubbish

the Solas' red JRX2... is as it was raced in the S.A. Titles in 1990 with pro-se front arms, shocks & shock towers


Winners Darryn (JRX Pro) and Jason (Cougar of some mixed breed)



Most amazing for me was seeing that yellow Kyosho Scorpion running around!!
This thing is early 1980s - that's like seeing a Model-T Ford dicing it in V8 Supercars.
Yet it handled and kept up with the pack, no failures apart from motor burnout.
