Decades ago I  found huge differences in brands. 
Some were great and some were duds. 
Back then most of my cars were Fly. 
Seeing the new offerings and new manufacturers I am curios if these cars are all competitive with each other. 
I looked for reviews but haven’t found them yet. 
I appreciate any insights.

Hi All,

I have a Tyco van which sadly arrived without a grill many years ago.  I finally got round to removing the thick, horrible silver paint, filling in the gaps in the roof from the missing light bar and giving it a nice coat of yellow paint.  I thought it might be fun to make it an HO version of the Tamiya Lunchbox rc truck.  

   

It's a very longshot but if you have a broken van with an intact grill that I could have/buy/love you long time for, then do let me know!

Race report and results - 7th August 2025 - Italian Cars (Proxy)

   
.
A great turnout tonight, 6 racers enjoyed a new club first!... let me explain what we did
.
We all entered an Italian car into this event but I suggested we try something brand new that we hadn't tried before, it would give the evening a Proxy event feel.
.
Instead of drivers being put into the lap timing program, the cars were listed.
.
The first three drivers drove their own car in the first heat, as the cars and drivers cycled through the listings, all six cars were driven once by all six drivers.  We all drove our own car once (which turned out to be Yellow or Blue lanes).
.
For heat #2, the cars moved over one lane to the right with a new car on Red lane, whilst the drivers moved in the other direction, over one lane to the left with a new driver on Blue lane.
.
For Round 2 of the racing, the cars cycled through the same sequence as in Round 1, but the drivers were moved on three places.  This meant no car was driven twice by the same person.
.
…and so to the results, which car won?... it turned out there were four different classes of cars, so four winners.

  • Chris’s Alfa GTV6 as the sole Small Sports/Saloons entry
  • Kev’s Ferrari F355 as the sole Back2Basics Class Sports entry
  • Ed’s Ferrari 412P and Brian’s Maserati MC GT3 as Standard Class Sports entries
  • Andy’s Lamborghini Huracan and Gav’s Ferrari F40 as Open Class Sports entries
.
  • ...Ed’s Ferrari 412P finished six laps ahead of Brian’s Maserati MC GT3
  • ...Andy’s Lamborghini Huracan finished six laps ahead of Gav’s Ferrari F40
   

Comparison chart

   
.
In the end it all worked out great despite the confusion before we actually started.
.
Thank you guys for letting us drive your cars, it was a very enjoyable evening and the cars were all really good to drive.
.
…let’s do this again…!
