Yup! The Rally of Great Britain in November.
Im a few hundered miles away but Im going to travel to watch it


Yeh, I watched the rally in Monte Carlo - was pretty cool!

Im a huge Subaru Fan so I think that the blue suits Tommi!!
Subaru have got 12pts in the Manufactuer's Champs! 1st

I also love EVOs!!


Well hope you get an EVO one day
Mole

PS. Not got my models yet

sanxler has just posted up new models a day or two ago. I am very interested in the Lancer Evo VII RS he has! Stock rims stink. I asked him if he sells rims; he's checking.

When did he send yours out? Has he confirmed that he has sent yet? Mine has been just a few days already. I should expect no later than Feb 4.

I read his buyer's feedback....aayyyaahh! Quite a few complaints! Packing stinks and item was crushed they say. Some never even sent! Hope mine isn't like that. Yours too! :smoker:

Don't mind me asking, how much was the total?

Have you noticed that the Lancer Evo VII has not been givin camera time on the WRC?? You barely see the car. Maybe because its hanging around at 8 or 9th place. Still, such a nice car! Only seen interior of it so far, other than the WRC's intro clip.

I hope EVO's don't die out now...Tommi and Freddy have signed with other companies. Now its Francis Delacrois running. BLAH!
I think Alister McRae is running an EVO too. Collin's little brother.

Subaru's are nice. My older brother owns one. Nice engine sound, high reving power! I like the Subaru Tommi runs. The order from sanxler was a the same one. Except it's Richard Burn's 2001 WRC Subaru.

Although if a Scooby and an EVO went head to head, I would bet my moneys on the EVO. (Let's not forget the movie "Legend of Speed2")

Yeh, it doesn't get much coverage on the WRC recently. Perhaps because they have "lesser" drivers now.
I have some pictures of the EVO uploaded for you. A friend went to the Monte. Try Here

Yeh Alister is driving for them now. Which I kinda like. I think his talent was wasted in the Hyundai and he's going to pull thru now he's in a better car - just my opinion!

We've got the old shape Impreza, the only new shape one we like is the WRC!!

I have the Burns 2001 one built already! Going to have to get Tommi one now! (will there be one?)

If a Scooby and an EVO went head to head - hmm. Stock cars - the evo maybe!! But our car? Heavily tuned 300bhp monster!!
The WRCs together - not sure - be VERY close. Both VERY quick cars.

Not seen Legend of Speed2 - reccomended?


I'll check out his new models.
I wish I had more money to spend on models!!!

He sent mine out last saturday (12th) and I have them!!!!!! Got them this morning!!! :flash: :flash:

Yours should take about 2 weeks too!

Yeh I saw his feedback AFTER i bought
Packing was just brown paper and boxes were slighty squased but the models are fine!! He even put the polystrene pieces in the box to help protect the model.

Even put it as a "GIFT" to stop Customs and Exise (bastards!) charging me import duty!

My total was $39 - that's for the Subaru (that no-one in the UK seems to have!) and the 206 - that I think is a pretty little car! Shipped.

What did you order, and whats the cost?

Hope you like the EVO pics!!

Mole

Whoa! Great pics! Nice camera work their! Damn thats a sick car!!
Be sure to snap A LOT of pics when November comes around for you. Grab some pics of Tommi as World Champion will you?
He's the most successful, and by switching to a better car that only suites HIM better, he will be unstoppable.

I like the WRC version of the EVO VII rather than the street version. I don't know why, but they look totally different. WRC version's front looks a lot bulgy and round. Looks amazing! The Subaru in the WRC is better than the street version too. Nicer front grill and skirt. Agressive looking spoiler; providing downforce.

Cool, you got your models! You're one happy camper huh? Good price for both of those.

My total was $40(shipping included). It's for Tamiya Subaru Impreza WRC 2001 (Richard Burns') and Fujimi Subaru Impreza WRX STi Version V 2D coupe. Good price, hooked me up with a bit less than expected.

Both yours are Tamiya models right? Were they not still in the individual packing? The box was shrinkrapped still? I know Fujimi never wrap their models but Tamiya should.

Legend of Speed is a chinese movie based in Hong Kong. Of course, HK is where street racing was born. Nice EVO's and Scoobies that go head to head. Little gangs and groups that bet money and even limbs and stuff and racing around street and stuff. Cool movie, even though its a bit old and only has the EVO 5 that is newest at that time. Still looks amazing. (Not like fast and furious with so much variety of cars with so much accessories to cars...[ie. spoilers, skirts, mufflers, decals, etc]. Just EVO's and Scooby running in this one. And maybe a bottle or two of NOS.

Just finished my Kawasaki ZX-12R yesterday and looking forward to those kits coming in soon. :smoker2:

Yeh I liked those pics. Plenty more of other cars too! I'll upload them soon.

Im going to get LOADS of pics & video in november!
Of Tommi as world champion as you say

He said himself that the Scooby is easier to drive than the mitsi so hopefully he's going to go for it BIGTIME!

All of the cars are better in their WRC version than the street version. Probably something to do with about 40 made per year @ $1,000,000 each!! Where as thousands of street cars are made at like $40,000

I know someone that haas the ACTUAL spolier from Richard Burn's car last year on their Subaru!

Your models are good. Im going to get a few Fujimi ones soon.
Your price was good too!

Both of mine were Tamiya. Still in original box, all in their plastic bags.
All he done was to put some polystyrene packing in the box to protect the bits.

Legend of Speed sounds cool. Might have to try and find that!
Not even seen Fast & Furious yet!!!! Never got round to seeing it at the cinema and now i'll have to wait until its out on DVD.

Make sure you're still coming on here in November! I'll get my pics to you as soon as I get back

Nice speaking to you. Mole
