I have had one of my moments of genius...... whilst watching repeats of Top Gear I noticed the challenge they had with the split drivers. You know the one where one guy did the teering and the other the throttle? Then it came to me........

RC pairs race. Yes that's right. The theory is simple, one car, two receivers, two transmitters, one channel each. drivers stand on the podium together, but one operates the throttle and the throttle only from his transmitter, whilst his team mate operates the steering from his. What do you think? I think it would only work with tamiya minis tbh, as with buggies it could get expensive very quickly! But I think it would be cool! you could even have 2 rostrums and make the pair stand at opposite ends of the hall ha ha ha ha .

Bagsy not going with pat though, he hates me and would just drive my car flat out all the time or into a wall straight off.

Ant your throttle only has two positions, full chat or not moving.
