Another project I've impulsively undertaken, a 1/10 scale RC Ferrari F-40! The chassis is a Kyosho Fazer Mk2 running the cheapest Amazon motor and ESC I could find. No idea the specs. This is more about form over function for me. Although I did try it out just in the shed.. Which was a mistake because now it's covered in dust.. That's what an air compressor is for. Regardless, it's got some balls. More than any RC car I've ever had. But I've only had cheap, Walmart ones. When I was in grade school I had a really nice, die cast Ferrari F-40 model and I always dreamed of shrinking down a and driving it. With modern FPV systems, that's possible to some extent, so why not?

I got super lucky because of all the cars I looked into, this was the first, and the only one I reliably found as far as a body shell goes:

I also would have been interested in a Lamborghini Murcielago, Lamborghini Diablo, or a Ford Econoline van (To do the Dumb and Dumber van) but the F-40 was right there and easy to find. It's also the one I wanted the most. The car will have headlights and tail lights as well, possibly underglow because I'm a product of the 90s and early 2000s and I can't help love it.
