Really cool old school rigs. But large scale has advanced light years beyond those at this point. The FG formula one cars for example, are incredible.
I love the amount of detail put into these cars. Simply amazing.

I found this very interesting, and informative, I mean have you ever tried to read an FG catalogue, half of it is in German.
Although this video did make me want a 1/4 scale Indy car, what I'll always want is a 1/4 scale kit of a 1950s-ish F-1 car, or Shelby cobra coupe.

The ones in the video are 1/4 scale midget racers, so the 50s era indy cars of that design would be a LOT bigger than the ones shown.
I believe the midgets are about 1/3 the size of the real thing, and these are 1/4th of that.

Very cool, @olds97_lss
That was one of his most hysterical routines. Must be about 25 years ago.
