Peter - Nice looking truck. You can't underestimate Mike though - last I knew he had an F100 and an AU Pursuit Ute, so he knows what's best

The Nitro machine looks the business. The steering and suspension really is amazing. I had a look at other Nitro machines on Ebay, and didn't realise what a popular hobby it was. I've always thought that a remote control car that had the power to spin the tyres effortlessly would be a lot of fun. The old battery powered 1:18 cars that I had as a 10 year old needed trans fluid on a marble floor before they'd even think about spinning the tyres.

Don't even get me started about the fire we started in a friend's house after we built a Scalectrix racetrack up a flight of stairs, then dabbed sewing machine oil all along the track. Who'd have thought such little cars could make so much tyre smoke. Who'd have thought the oil would get so hot that it'd set fire to the carpet...... That was in Grade 7. The stage was set from an early age

Good luck with the auction !
