Right. Weird one I'm looking for. I think it was some old MG thing, it's grey with bright yellow or green rim-taped wheels I think. It's done the rounds in Max Power etc and if you've ever been to their live shows, it's the one where the bloke gets out the car and it continues doing a doughnut on it's own.

Anyone have a frickin' clue what I'm going on about? Just want some pics pleeease

Its a Legend. Theres a one make series for them. They are nothing to do with MG. Its just that Terry Grant is sponsored by MG.

Is there something made in it to hold the throttle open when he's on the roof?

Yeah....there is a lever to hold the throttle open to keep the power on. He also has a lever which locks the front wheel to keep the car donuting perfectly. I think he can lock either front wheel independantly.

Ah right, still cool all the same!

The best thing I've seen him do (in pics) was change the wheel while it was doing donuts

I've driven one of those Legends. They're awesome little machines!

I'd love one for a track toy.

Yes

Thanks guys. I actually want the pics as thinking about going for the same colour theme on a car if I get it as the paintwork is a bit knackered

He is a cool dude too.

They're 5/8th scale replicas of 1934 Ford Sedans.

They're awesome to drive too. I really, really want one
Although I had to left foot brake because i couldn't manouver my right foot properly, and the sequential box is on the right and it felt a bit odd changing gear with my right hand.
I got used to it after a few laps though.
