Cool!!! I'd love to see a vid or screen shots... I think thats the one I do not have. 🤷‍♀️🤔

I hope you got the cartidge display stand or the seller took some money off... 🤣
i could probably do some screen shots later.
its a limited reissue from Retro-Bit (i preordered through castlemaniagames.com like 6 months ago). i got the box, the stand, the manual, the stickers, and the game. ( https://retro-bit.com/rcproam2/ ) just loose original cartridges of the game are in the $150 range and i picked up the reissue for $73 with tax and shipping :cool:

Thats cool that they remade it!!! 😎

I def didn't have this one! Reminds me of Rally X (?) Old old (real) arcade game.

It looks like fun!!! Good way to pass time during the cold months! 😁
 
Makes me want to break out the old nintendo and see if it still plays! 😁😎
they always play. if they don't pin connectors are easy to replace, and if needed cap kits are available (and you have the soldering skill to do it)
 
It showed up yesterday. It truly is a work of art. I can't wait to get it slidin'.

Looks awesome!

LOL, nah that was a couple weeks ago. Been wanting to dive into this for a while now, but it's just a spendy as a 1/10 setup. BUT, I can run at home without having to go anywhere. I'll start a build thread also. Man the parts are tiny!

Oh holy crap man. I totally forgot you were wanting a 1/24. And I even looked at the pic of it, zoomed in, and didn't even catch it. Not to mention I looked thst car over when Helidirect announced it. But even with that I thought it was a 1/10 😯

And I don't doubt it's going to be as expensive as a 1/10 build, or even higher. I was telling someone the other day how smaller stuff can easily be much more expensive to make than the same exact parts in a larger scale. Tooling becomes smaller, requiring slower feeds on the machines. And tolerances have to be held to a tighter standard.

I hope you wear out your camera taking pics!
 
Thanks guys, I will be sure to setup the light booth and get tons of pics. It's one I've drooled over for a long time now, we will see if the juice was worth the squeeze. I figure costs are roughly comparable with good electronics to 1/10 setup, about $700 or so all in. That being said, there are cheaper options these days, I just wanted something nice. If I hate it, it'll sit on my desk for display. LOL
