I made some more of my racing buggies. (URL) last one's been up for a little while already, but I don't think I ever posted it here. I also used the 4589 RC Nitro Flash to make my own RC car. I guess it's about as spacey as my buggies. (URL) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.announce.moc)
