Tamiya Beetle's New Shoes

A Common trick is to use Tamiya 1:10 Mini Minilite wheels as they resemble KN Minator 8-spoke wheel. I painted them GOLD and used Mini slicks without tyre insert (original ones did not fit into the slicks), and the grip felt awesome, even with fresh tyres and dirty tarmac after the winter. Slicks has also smaller radius so it's not going so fast anymore, with original tyres it's way too fast for my kids (read: for me) to handle.

Newspaper surprise!

Funny surprise when flying back from Beijing yesterday. I found my colleagues on one picture in a wednesdays newspaper called the Ilta-Sanomat, and realized I was on the same flight from Vienna to Helsinki three weeks ago, where the picture was taken. A closer look and I found my own back of the head on the picture too! How many times would things like this happen? Sitting in an airplane reading a newspaper seeing yourself sitting in an airplane?
