TGIF - Feels like Christmas?

[HomeRacingWorld]

With all the new toys coming in, feels like Christmas around here.

Looks like the Scalextric Cougar has been released and will find it's way here soon as well.

That will be my last "must have" car of the year. There are more I want, but that is for Santa to decide. :occasion-santa:

Going to be a busy couple of days with reviews and site updates...sounds like fun :)

Hope all of you have a fun weekend.

if it was a little colder it would look like christmas

good luck on the reviews

any news on the SCX Cuda?

It DOES feel like Christmas around here! Of course, that could be due to the 6" of snow and ice in the last two days and the fact that it is only 5 degrees at the moment...

I haven't gotten anything yet and am awaiting for US vendors to get the Scalextric cars so I can place my orders. THEN, it will seem like Christmas!

My Christmas present from my loved one has been bought - 2 124th Ferrari P3s from Carrera.
Thinking about the Cougar though - looking better now real images are appearing.

Christmas indeed! Look what just arrived today:

It's an anniversary/early Christmas present from my sweetie-pie!

The real car is special to my family as it's my mom's favorite. We all went to the Simeone Museum last month to see it run. When the curator found out that it was my mom's favorite car, he let her behind the ropes, grabbed her camera, and took some shots of her next to it. Bugatti built 3, but only one remains- the one at Simeone which is the actual winner of the '37 Le Mans.

Of course, this is an early LMM car, so I'm sure it will drive me nuts. The list of what's wrong with it is already a mile long- and I haven't even removed the body yet! It's the gift that keeps on frustrating, but I'm excited and infinitely thankful nonetheless. :D

Nice selection Goose! That sure looks good.

Goose - that is a beauty!

Mseitz - now THAT is a rod!

I'm taking the Fetching Mrs. Reinecke out for a fancy dinner tonight. I can't afford Taco Bell like Harry can, so we'll see what she picks out.

Have a few more T/A cars I'd like to finish tuning, some "junk" to list on eBay, and I'm almost done tuning two of my Rev/Mono M6A's and an HSRR M8. I'm trying to determine if I really NEED to get the Slot.it one since I have three of these. So far it looks pretty promising in how it is running.

Probably take the ladies to see Thor on Sunday. I made them see Thor racing a car in Rush, so we're even then. Actually, I'm a huge Marvel fan and love these things.

I have a hammer I call the mighty thor, when I hit my thumb with it its mighty thor :laughing-rolling:

[dreinecke]

You're a funny guy! Just don't quit the day job yet...

[RazorJon]

:text-threadjacked:

[HomeRacingWorld]

Oh yeah, nice looking coupe. :)

Jon will be here all week folks, try the veal. It's amazing.

Ya just gotta feel sorry for the professional comedians, over 5000 out of work and we have people here trying to be funny. :laughing-rolling:
No Christmas stuff for me this year with all the projects I have. I haven't finished project SuperVan yet, and progress is slowly moving on. Tuning some Ninco karts at the moment. :)
