Hey, I could drive right by a TRU if I wanted too. I don't have to stop in to every store just to check out the bargains. Of course I never actually buy anything unless it's on some kind of a discount or unless I really need it ;) You guys are bad! (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

For Live 1 is the puck going to be made of one wheel hub or two. I remember discussing this, but I can't remember the decision. The design of my hockey stick is kind of dependent on this. Derek (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

If you like the 8466 Dave, the I think you'd really like the 8448 supercar too, IMHO. Both vehicles use the new technic panels for styling, as well as the flex axles for that 'flowing' look.
