Hi guys,
with the very sad news of jimmy passing away just thought I post where to find the kiwis if oople doesn't continue -which would be a huge shame,
We also frequent a NZ site
RCRacer.co.nz

We have also recently had a vintage section added so if your lost and need somewhere to shoot the s##t come see us there👍

Cheers Adrian

Thanks buddy, it's all a bit up in the air I think with Vicky having more important things to deal with at the min.

I just want to say I don't think this will be the end of oOPle as I don't think jimmy would of wanted that, after all this is he legacy.

I think it's going to take some time to heal and I think we can all fly the flag for him and carry on this great community that he started all those years ago. I for one want it to go from strength to strength and not to fade away.

I know the place isn't going to be the same without him but we can still do him proud.

Oh nooo, this is one of the most terrible news ever in this small RC world!!! Does anyone know what happened?
You will be missed by many Jimmy and I'm afraid you will not be replaceable. So much talent and humor combined in one guy. I really hope this forum will keep on living as his main legacy. Rest in peace Jimmy!

I love oOple, been on it most days for several years. I'm an oOple addict and it's all thanks to Jimmy making it such a fantastic place to be.

I agree. I am active on several forums, and what strikes me is the absence of trolls, and/or people that just want to brag to make them look important. I haven't met a member here yet that wasn't friendly. I think that is the true RC spirit.
