Thanks!
Anyone else want in on the action out there? I am going to try and hit my own set deadline, might have to move it out a bit because I also want to do a video. We'll see.
And the long awaited winner of the race is......the Camera Car. This car is just simply amazing.
No one was able to touch it as it swept through the Race of Champions. The Turbo Flame came a little close, but it has never lost a single race and swept every opponent it met. It went up against the also undefeated Blastous-FTE in the final race but the Camera Car won 3 races to zero. It doesn't stop there. We took it to our 50 foot league track and no one was close on this car there either. Like I said, simply amazing.

Great racing! I was really pulling for the MB Land Rover 'cause I have one that's very fast. What year was the Camera Car released? I don't thick I've ever seen that one.
Thanks for letting us participate.
very cool, that camera car is dead stable. thanks for putting this together
What year was the Camera Car released? I don't thick I've ever seen that one.
The grey/red version came out the same year as the black/green version. I believe it was 2011. You could find them pretty cheap around Xmas time 2012. Seeing some places still selling them for a lower price compared to what they started out at.
My older son got the black version in 2011 and it was nothing close to this one that my younger son got this past XMas.
This is way cool.
