It does look VERY cruddy. I'm glad that I noticed it. Now people can see the effects of lack of climate control. All the temperature fluctuations reak havoc on the scrap steel, ummm, piano wire.

At the world championships in Chicago,85? The RJR chassis was the winer. Interesting that in stock G-12 class, the motors were drastically lightened. I'll try to post this. I'm convinced that it's a vaguely disguised cobalt magnet setup.

A couple of your chassis are Racer Products too. The blue & white body looks like a Camen. Maybe painted by Racer Products?

Camen Lancia. Raced it for years in I-15, G-27 and Semi-Pro with a lot of success.  :)

Could very well be. My departed friend Gordy Root put that body tougher for me on the disassembled Parma. The other two were , from what I've read here, were marketed by a few companies. The Racer Products body is anyone's guess. The owner is a member here.
