I've got a tamiya sabre in bits in the shed with a Thunderbolt shell. I used to have and race a Mugen 1/8th scale petrol 4wd racer, that was fast and fun... cost around £600 sold for £150 when i was skint at one time, I really regret that now I have a 9 year old son.
I'll need to dig out the sabre soon, do Nicads keep indefinately :?
