The more I think about it I dont have or see how I could acheive the detail in making my own, at least it would be a crazy amount of time.
This Is the most Awesome car for the Price I canrt wait to get it. I found this Awesome F-1 1/5 car I could use the body or just overhaul the whole thing with new drivetrain and electronics and so on.
I'd like to buy it now and modify but I'll have to sell a few things as I'm still out of a job.
1/5 Formula 1 RC $80.
