may look better in wagon form.

Flat bottom and audio controls? That will be a popular mod I think.

So I guess instead of being lax with Webber's pit stops, the Red Bull F1 team decided to break a record with one of his stops. Not like it mattered in the race, though...

To those running RPF1's, anybody know where I can get cheap plain black center caps? I'm almost tempted to make my own (using the lathe at work)

But isn't that what you were asking if anyone had plain center caps?
