Slightly off topic, but do you remember the PB Sizzler 1/10th circuit car? It had de-dion 5 linked rear suspension. I had one in the very early days of 1/10th circuit a few years before touring cars became popular. Of course the early touring cars were just lowered and foam-tyred 1/10th off roads cars. We even did a race at Brands Hatch on the real BTCC weekend. This was in the days of the Listerine BMWs of Will Hoy and Tim Harvey. Happy memories.
i still have a pb sizzler, not an original chassis or front beam though, managed to break them by hitting the metal post in the middle of the ashby track after going airborne once again. i always seemed to end up airborne in pro 10, they did fly well though.......
my modified cougar 1 touring car with mip chain drive and pb two speed would blow the sizzler away any day of the week, just handled so much better and actually stayed on the ground too!
