What Ever Happened to...

losidan · #1 16-03-2006

The Durango cars. They seemed to br cropping up winning big events and were always said to be great. Jimmy had some shots too and then nothing...

I think they won the recent Petit RC indoor race in France, they seem to be going strong but dont have the same drivers they had before so we dont get to hear about them so much. From what I know its all german and austrian drivers, dont think they are interested in selling the car so dont seem to want to promote it outside of those few drivers.

exactly, it was never a car built to be sold, it was only ever built to be raced by the best drivers and win.

the best alternative that uses the same design ideas (narrow chassis) is the slim4, I have driven the car and it is ace!

I heard Hupo Honigl is running it now

DCM · #5 16-03-2006

What, the SLIM 4 heehee

OldTimer · #6 16-03-2006

Now that would be interesting

SCOTT DICKINSON · #7 10-09-2006

Yes the slim 4 is nice to drive

But believe me it aint a patch on my DURANGO! Everyone that uses my car says that if they owned it they would be much quicker!
just my opinion
if anyone would like pics of any part or to drive my 2005 please ring me on 07916173455

SCOTT DICKINSON · #15 10-09-2006

SCOTT DICKINSON · #16 10-09-2006

PaulRotheram · #17 10-09-2006

well what is funny to some isnt to others

dcm uses the short term abbreviations alot, so its kinda natural.

SCOTT DICKINSON · #18 10-09-2006

I should be down at Stotfold for some of the winter series meetings shaking down the 07 spec car, you more than welcome to give it a run.

Btw whose's Slim4 have you driven out of interest.
