Thanks guys - very much appreciated ! Turns out that have them in stock, so my mate will be thrilled !

A mate needs a windscreen for his RF. I understand that RF & DRB windscreens are interchangeable, so does anyone know where such windscreens might be available here in Aus

Hi Peter, With regard to the big spacing between 4th & 5th - this is from the worksheet tab "G50-xx & Mods". The standard G50 ratios are shown in the worksheet tab "Stock G50-xx". At the time, the cost of a higher final drive setup was out of reach, so I opted to just go with a higher 5th...

Hi Peter, The attached spreadsheet might be helpful. I set it up to compare the Porsche G50-50 & G50-00 gearboxes, but if you know all the ratios for your UN1 boxes, you could just substitute these new numbers. Enter the tyre diameter & the final drive ratio, & you will get graphs of rpm vs...

The teachers & students are all wimps these days - we had a maths teacher who wore hearing aids & we would start the class off all talking normally, then gradually lowering our voices during the lessons. The teacher would wind up his hearing aids, & all would be good - until - the end of class...

Jim - Absolutely Brilliant ! I hope that you get Matt to do some "in progress pics" of the 206 build, & then a final shoot like this one when she is done ! Kind Regards, Peter D.

Weird stuff going on here - Facebook announced to one & all that I turned 111 years old on 1/1/16 !! Amazing the number of friends who simply sent congrats !!

Some of the best R/C flying I have ever seen - thanks Bill !

Hi Pete, congrats on your new project - 'tis a thing of beauty, & I reckon that you will get heaps of fun out of it !! Small world re Frank Matich - my daughter's ex is Frank's grandson, & Frank's chief designer (Henry Nehribecki) did the dropped floors in my GT40 !! All the best to you & Di...

I found that quite depressing - all that history, effectively stored outdoors & neglected for so long that the rust has just about won ! To restore, most cars would probably cost up to $1m, & then it would not really be a restoration - the original cars would only be capable of providing...
