Dad is/was a very avid RC airplane enthusiast, and had RC Modeller on subscription. When I was younger, the whole bookcase in kitchen was filled with years worth of them. As a young bloke growing up - always looked forward to seeing the next model on the cover haha!

My buddy had 2 of these PBs brought into Canada in the 80’s when we were teenagers. The only 2 ever in our area. I raced mine all over, the biggest event was just south of us in the states. The 2spd was fast. I still have an old competition plus mag with a pic of my car. I did the same as you, ditched all my cars when I turned 16. Years later I traded some full sized car parts for my buddies old PB, not the mint specimen mine was. This car is beat, it’s in my shop now, along with half a dozen old kyosho and yokomo cars.

Thank you again Adam. This hobby is a great way to meet like minded people and form friendships. Alex has always been a stand up guy and a great friend. Being in the position to return a car to him that has significant meaning is a blessing.

Jason your cars and channel just keep getting better - the effort you put into the hobby is unmatched! I wonder if any of the living PB folks are aware of just how much love their old buggies are getting these days?!? Safe travels on your way to the races can’t wait to see what have in store for us!!!

Wade thank you. I continue to challenge myself and learn more about how to deliver more to the audience. It's been a fun road so far and I appreciate the friends I have made in the hobby.

I was particularly tickled by your vid tonight, my parents were the publishers of that magazine you showed that lady on the cover of the was a great work freind of mine

Its very cool to hear this. I was a bit thrown because she was on the cover and her hobby was horse riding and not playing rc with toy cars 😆

@Bormac0739 ай бұрын
It would have been criminal not to return a car to him. It was a good opportunity for me to no doubts finish cars in my own collection but also for me to sort as good and reliable car for Alex to drive and potentially race in vintage events in the future,

Thank you MV. The PB cars are worth the effort and this build is one I really do want to share in detail. Hoping it helps and inspires others to do great things with their PB's also.

Were you ever into rc cars or only horse riding? This was obviously the first publication I ever saw as a 13 yo boy. I always remembered the cars and the fact there was a girl sitting on a log holding them. Fantastic to see we have such a small world. Thank you for checking out the content.
@user-rj8uq6yf9b9 ай бұрын
@@Bormac073 no only horse riding. But I had a good friend who was involved in the cars. Alexis.

It has been an interesting look back at how things use to be. Now days you don't see bikini girls handing out trophies at these events nor girls on the covers of toy car magazines. It's just a sign of the times. This magazine always stuck out to me being it was the first I ever picked up on the news stand. I can admit the cover note was interesting to read as Im sure a lot of boys were let down that a young woman with r'c cars on the cover was in fact not into rc cars at all- lol.

Hello Bormac really really 100% fell in love with PB racing with your great clips. Can you show us how it’s 2 speed clutch is constructed thanks
@Bormac0739 ай бұрын
Yes I will be doing even more than that. There needs to be some more indepth look at these cars and the 2 speed. After the Vintage Bash 2.0 I will get to it.

Have you ever thought about collecting all IFMAR-winning cars, from all the different categories? I mention this because from my recollection one of the first 1/8th scale off-road buggies that won IFMAR was... I think... a Mustang. A Wikipedia IFMAR page will list the winning cars for different categories.

No I haven't to be fair. My inspiration in this hobby comes from my home track of BORMAC back in the 80's and 90's plus many of the articles I would read from magazines back then. Im not cashed up to just go around buying up things I don't need and my content isn't making me a single dollar. The channel isn't monetised because I want to save the viewers the displeasure of having to watch adds.

Keith you have done so much for me also. It's. pleasure also knowing that the cars and kits you now have get to be shared with our community and not just torn down or sold off for a profit the minute you get it. Always great to see your content also.

If you are on FB why not go check out the FB user group under the same name as this channel? I have photos up on FB of the TRX-1 I am just about to go race at the Bash 2.0
