Yes....both great people. For years I took the kids to Trans Am and IMSA races. MOST of the drivers were friendly and giving. My kids still remember them today. Thx

As an aftermarket manufacture myself and someone who loves RB product......7 months is unacceptable. If I take more than 2 days to ship product I am in the hospital or away.....one week was the longest it ever took. 7 months to me means refund. JUST IMHO ONLY

Scale model building good for the brain
Dave Van replied to atomicholiday's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
I have thought for years that model and/or building a real car was good for your mind. No matter in 1/1 scale or 1/25 I build projects over and over in my mind before I commit to real world. I find issues and sort out the order of a process. Bottom line is it keeps your mind active and then causes you to use the data collected to build something. -
I bought a bunch of his stuff at the Toledo NNL......it was his first show and his prices were REALLY low. Some of the best aftermarket stuff out there....hope he is still making items.

I like the spin you are putting on this. Back years ago when Okey Spalding bought what was left of JoHan he had a booth at the RCHTA hobby show in Chicago. One of the new series he was going to produce was a 'Luxo' version of the classic car kits. The new JoHan showed many 'coming' kits at that show....only two ever made it to the shelf.....Rambler surf wagon and snap Turbine car. None of the other saw daylight. I feel you are filling that whole in a way!!

A good life story. Like most of us face....bad things, good things.........so nice to have such a good outcome.
