(...) Ah, OK. I found it over on Eurobricks. That is a nice looking Mars tank, with the big hubs for the new treads too. Very welcome. (17 years ago, 7-Jan-08, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I might have guessed - actually using IR for communications is a better idea than many people seem to think. I've already had my share of playing around with IR on the RCX ;) (...) I call that an interesting and entirely sensible approach - (...) (17 years ago, 7-Jan-08, to lugnet.technic)
