Following on from the snow thread, here's some shots of my "fleet!"
I'm a bit of a sucker for Tamiya models so over the years I've build up quite a few... with a few other mixed in from Kyosho and HPI that add to about 80 - 90... I've not counted recently :joker:
One of my favourites, and one of my best pictures. Taken for a comp on the Tamiyaclub world owners club it ended up coming second

The truck that more or less started it all, the Traxxas EMaxx... the truck that actually got me my user name as the first forum I ever joined was for RC car racing!

The Kyosho Blizzard - fantastic fun in the snow

The HPI Baja 5B... insane fun and a deadly weapon if it ever hit you! :axe:

My Tamiya Mountaineer... the oldest model I own and probably the most vauable
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/11559_102298876461945_100000455006145_59544_726185 _n.jpg

All the Impreza's together

The Juggernaught... it's a bit of a monster
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/11559_102237443134755_100000455006145_58404_759999 3_n.jpg
The Aeromax. A total swine to drive as it's so damn big and heavy. This one is probably the most expensive as it runs 6 channel radio gear and everything is automated. it looks, sounds and acts like a real truck
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/11559_102237446468088_100000455006145_58405_379980 _n.jpg

My little F201 F1 car. Carbon fibre everything and proper inboard cam driven suspension. I love this car
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/11559_102491896442643_100000455006145_64215_624096 6_n.jpg
Godzilla - the Nissan Skyline R34 Z Tune replica I made up with full lighting kit
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/11559_102237459801420_100000455006145_58408_115853 3_n.jpg
My old racing colours from back in 2005 when I was sponsored by Morrisons MG garage in Stirling

The Crawler project I put together back in the days when rock crawling was still a bit underground and you couldn't buy kits off the shelf. This one started life as a Tamiya TXT1 that was modified until the point only the chassis and axles were original!

and the rest of team orange. My current Tamiya TRF 416 racing chassis (imported from Japan) and HPI Micro RS4
https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/166484_184112904947208_100000455006145_546274_6684 3_n.jpg
