Speaking of harking back to your childhood, I've started watching the original episodes of Captain Scarlet again. Taped most of them in the mid nineties and was going to watch them today (which is how I came to break the video player!) but couldn't find them
. Nothing past or present has beaten Gerry Anderson's explosions and pyrotechnics. So realistic
But I did find tapes of HMC 1999 (Suicide Squad round Standlake!) and Firecracker 7 so watched them instead |

I suppose that's what he had to work with at the time, I find it funny in captain scarlet that it's set in 2068, but all the cars are from the 1960's

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

Yeah, the wheels aren't exactly meant for bangering, and I agree with that. On the plus side they're great wheels to use in other projects. |

Yeah - They're nice alloys but dont suit the banger racing scene at all, might have to get some new wheels!

As an FYI, Yat Ming's wheels are generally smaller than a lot of the other cars on the market. Matchbox rims won't work. I played around with some various rims at my disposal and the best are older Yat Ming rims and Tomica rims. |
