SNT Sniclo Racing 1:64 3015 Atom Series – The experience driving over our own car!
Have you ever wondered what it feels like to drive over your own car? Yep, you’ve read it right! No, this is not a joke! We are completely serious. What does it feel like to drive over your own car with an RC car that is smaller than a computer mouse? That’s exactly what we wanted to find out, because you have to come up with something like that first. But if an RC car of this size can do it, then only the SNT 1:64 3015 Atom Series from Sniclo can (and his RC-brothers, but more about that later on). The company Sniclo Racing (also previously known as SNT)…

The new BBURAGO Ferrari 812 Competizione is…
…actually not bad at all to be honest! Or to be more precicse: surprisingly good! Because we haven’t seen any real treats among the Bburago models in 1:64 scale so far. For one thing, they were far too big for this scale, and for another, the plastic rims just looked awful.

They all simply gave the impression of being happy to be able to add such a model to the collection, but…

All about the FORD RS200 – Tarmacworks Hobby64+ FEATURETTE
Hobby64+ and Ford RS200: Tarmacworks sets new standards! Although we are staying in 1:64 scale here, Tarmacworks literally takes the crown with these models. They are by far the most detailed models on the Tarmacworks market. A packaging design specially tailored to the model meets a sample that looks as accurate in the pictures as if you had a real rally car in your own garage as 1:1. Years earlier, we had the pleasure already of adding several rally versions to our collection with the Lancia 037. Whether test vehicle in red, safari version with spare wheel on the roof or with unique paintwork from the respective years. They all…

The most legendary rally cars of all time – Group B FEATURETTE
Group B Monsters: The ultimate era: more than 30 years ago, Group B rally cars created an unrivalled state of emergency and excitement in the WRC. In 1986, the Group B cars started their final season at the Rally Monte-Carlo. The era of these racing cars, which had virtually no engine restrictions, is still regarded by most rally fans as the only true era of the World Rally Championship. Between 1982 and 1986, almost anything was allowed in this class. Performance increased so dramatically that the WRC soon rivalled Formula 1 in terms of popularity and power. But there were serious accidents and in 1986 the whole thing was put…
