F1 is like Boobies?

More articles by Derek Buono »

Written by: Derek Buono

I am a huge fan of Formula 1. Why the RC class has had trouble launching into superstar status is baffling really. They are scale, fast, and pretty cheap to run. Recently, Jeff asked me to take some shots for an article that required “open wheels” to demonstrate his point. I dug my old Tamiya F104 F1 out of a box and it was like discovering boobs for the first time. I stared, I touched, I smiled and I now need to play with them all the time.

We’ll have a super amazing F1 feature in VRC_003, but until then I just wanted to share this boob….err F1 picture and see if you like them like I do.
