Hey Folks!
Some of you (bitpimps) might know me, others might be luckier. ;)
Anyway, I finally decided to step up outta the 1:64's, and had been checking out the 1:18 scale stuff for a while. I was tossing up between the half-eight, mini-T and rc18t - but 2wd ruled out the mini-T, i'd heard from others who had durability and practicality issues with the 18t, plus once i saw the half-eight i knew i HAD to have it. So today I dropped $100 deposit on a half-eight at my LHS here in Brisbane, and will be paying off the rest after christmas.
This is my first venture larger than 1:64, so it's gonna be a steep learning curve! I'm off to do some reading!
