Apart from Vannin', (and other custom vehicles) what other hobbies do the members here have? Personally, I do a lot of model making, mainly in 1:87 scale.

1:87 Scale! thats abit small aint it? i do some DJ'ing now and again, just for partys etc. thats where most of my sound system will end up, in my car. probly a few more things, but nothing major. oh and, i like nitro r/c cars, my current one does 0-40mph in 1.5 secs and top speed of 55 mph ish. i take it away with me most of the time at runs, so if u ever see a really fast annoying, smokey, oily hair drier on wheels, it could be me.
(might post a few reminders to ppl who forgot this forum existed and havnt signed in since)

Annoying, smokey, oily hair dryer? Sounds a bit like the scooterists around these parts! Arf Arf! Anyways, 1:87 is small, but there are lots of van models available at this scale. I'm looking for a CF at the mo, so if you know anyone.........! I see what you mean about having to post reminders. I visit this forum every day in the hope that someone has made a post or three. We'll have to plug it at the shows.
