I recently re-posted the video of the very first Euro's for 1:8 in Modena Italy, back in 1974. I also posted images from that video of Ronnie Ton's independent suspension car as a tribute to his contribution to model car racing, not only for his unique and innovative independent suspension chassis, but also for his eye for detail.

A new set of wheel colors has been added for GT3. The new color range is more 'anodized' looking and therefore matches much better with almost any body paint scheme and color.
These new colors have been applied to GT3 front and rear wheels 1. The original color set is still available as GT3 front/rear wheel 3.
