Stories from the world of RC car racing

Another very entertaining episode of Top Gear tonight! Each week we’ll bring you a pop quiz based on the night’s adventures.

Tonight the question is simple.  If you could drop a mini-skip full of rubbish from great height onto any car, which car would you choose?  Datsun 120Y? Lada Niva? Suzuki Mighty Boy?
My personal choice would be the FSM Niki.  How ’bout you?
Now, where can I find $1500, 2 or 3 mad mates, and a paddock…..

    im thinking you could take care of the above 4 with 1 skip.
    if not mr clarkson’s plan b could work… ‘explosives’ (only after the skip has already been dropped on them).
    or maybe the skip could be replaced by a citroen 2cv… filled with explosives.

    I had another great suggestion by a friend today. The (in)famous Morris Marina.

    what’s the deal with calling the suzuki mighty boy a crap car? 😀
    an esky, with wheels and an engine…. and you call yourself a queenslander!?!

    i am with jaybo
    the lada has got to go.
    do you know they are a bloody tough heap of shit.
    i was told be mechanics that they could service these things by rolling them on the side.
    the body was incredibly strong.
    ugliest thing also.
