If you want to run vintage, can't beat the RC10....
Not a bad idea about Cully though..
I'd forgotten how many pieces there were to these cars Alan and that they don't come with bearings!! . The hotshot is staying completely standard including the 540 silver can motor and tyres....or at least for now haha.

I still need to fix my optima mids gearbox after it went crunch at the Batley Christmas meeting on the warm up lap of the final. That carpet is unforgiving on the old cars.
