I vowed to look after this one and anyone that knows me knows what a crock of shit that statement is :D

I use it 12 months of the year and in any and all weathers. I live 1/2 mile up a very bumpy farm track too so my car gets quite a work out.

I am undersealing it as we speak. The first coat went on today, the second one in the next day or so and then I may even clean it :o

if i have a show or event to got to and it's rain i still take the car out, but as it's a toy in all effects, i won't just take it out if it's raining, as you can't use the power to start with and minis rust badly so it's not heathy for it either :wink:

I used to until I found it span the wheels in the first 4 gears in the rain,]

I still do occasionally but try to avoid it if possible

yup, love it in the rain, and prey for a good snow every year :-D

I can sort of understand some with RWD being weary, but agree :gay:
