I'm not sure how many of the slot car road racers have 1-1 scale race cars but a fair number of the slot drag racers at Buena Park have now or had race cars. I've seen some of PDL's cars posted and thought it would be nice to have a thread for race cars, high performance street cars and motorcyles owned by bloggers.
I was asked to post some pictures of my Thunder Roadster so here they are.

Edo,
The only criterium is that the vehicle(s) in question must bear a number plate and be engaged in a competition with other similar vehicles. Naked broads, horses or dogs are welcome only if primary drivers. :)

Very cool Barry and Mike!!! But Barry, doesn't the "guide flag" go underneath instead of on top of the hood?? :mrgreen:

I would post a picture of my racing Greyhound, but she is actually a "retired" racer. She is now a bonified 40 mph couch potato.
