DavidChampagne Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) Looking forward to updates.I love building the Tamiya F1 cars. Have built 2 of the 1/12 scale (2 more to build, including my McLaren). Built about 7 or 8 of the 1/20 scale (6 more to build).What scale is yours?Youtube has several vids of building Tamiya models, including a series on the McLaren (pity it is in Japanesse.F1 starts this weekend in Australia. How far from the Austin track are you? Edited March 14, 2013 by DavidChampagne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69*Goat Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Throttle body/Intake parts, and pieces. I will have these installed this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
69*Goat Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 11 pieces is what it took to build the throttle linkage assembly. I swear I must have lost, and recovered each of those 11 pieces at least 3 times each, because of them popping out of my locking tweezers. I still need to add about 8 PE bolt heads to the intake/Throttle body base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
