Default pb racing

has anyone got any pics of a Pb ace, I use to have one when i was a kid but never got it going well due to funds, bad building and lack of driving ability, I cant find any info online about this car at all, Not even on google!!!

I saw one on ebay once - many years ago. They can't have made many as I've never seen anything about them since.. I think you'll probably find a few photos on tamiyaclub.com though.

Default 2 speed

I'm pretty sure the 2 speed was an option as i dont remember one on mine, but that was 19 years ago, sold everything i owned to buy it, then couldnt get a lift to the club anymore, i cant even remember what happened to it in the end. I remember it had the motor at the back, 3 belts and alloy housings. I always wanted a maxima, "life was so much simpler at 15"

My very good friend has a pb maxima hanging in his garage , he has never used it .
The only thing i dont think it has a body shell and its running white hotshot wheels.
