Tamiya 1/12 Honda RC166

Though it has been out since late last year, I just learned about this kit.  Ordered mine today, along with the wheel and fork detail kits.

One of the best I have ever seen used to be on the forum, but I haven't seen any of his posts for a long time.

I can't remember, but that dude built some awesome models. The one of his 916 looked real, until he put a penny beside it.  :D

Thanks for the pics, that's a cool one.  8)

Also, I'd been racking my brain trying to find that car he did.  [beer]

The saying "Nothing builds like a Tamiya" is very true.  they make some high quality models and are very true to their full scale brothers.

He did a hell of a 916 kit build. I tried to find those pictures a while back, but they seem to suffered a case of "moved or deleted."
