Hey,

This reminded me about something i had done about 8years back on "aldus photstyler"....and made me look it up on my comp...

On finding the file i noticed it was called scorcher.jpg..... and then i remembered there used to be a radio controlled car about 10yrs back which had 6 wheels and was called the scorcher! (cldt find any pics). However it used to steer the same way a tank does, ie on the remote u have a stick for forward/reverse per side of wheels, ie 1 for LHS 3wheels and one for RHS 3wheels.

rtech, the f1 u posted about seems like it would have a definite advantage in terms of putting power down....but then i seem to think that if there were tight hairpins etc the car would not be soo happy......i wonder if they used tires with slightly larger sidewalls on the rear tires to enable easier steering.

cheers
