Desert Rat Racer

I don't no if any of U guys can remember my Chev Blitz that I built some time back well it's no more, one of our cats (I think the male one) got into my den a couple of days ago and decided it was a good toy to play with unfortunately for the Chev truck (if it was him) this cat has indoor sharp claws, well the truck did not survive the game and it's not worth showing U the end result as there is not a lot left of the poor old girl she is caput, shredded to pieces, nothing left, rubbish bin material, so destroyed I almost destroyed the cat but then I thought well it's only a cradstock model and I can print and build a better one so now I'm at it again next one will be tops I know all the mistakes now.

Cats dont like models...



...especially when they are Radio Control and of the tank variety. I'm sure it wasn't ethical but it was fun watching my little R/C tank doing doughnuts and running on 12 volt nicads whilst chasing the cat. It was a little reminiscent of the chase scenes from the Terminator films!

Well if John Connor was a small cat...and the T2000 was a scratchbuilt 9 inch long tank chassis...
