Nice.........I've quit playing R/C cars for quite a few years, but nowadays I want to get back into the hobby. Thinking of getting a Serpent touring car, but I hear the HPI is better.

HPI's are good and very tunable, these loads of parts avablle for each car, a good starter set it the RS4 which has everything you need part from fuel and batteries

Have just ordered this:

Sony DSC S600 Digital Camera

6 Megapixels
2 inch screen
Carl Zeiss lens
high sensitivity shooting




Hopefully I can now get better quality pics of the Capri. Previous camera i used was bought when digital cameras were first becoming popular so is a bit crap now.
