Re: New Starter, from Banbury, just wondering.......
Nearly all of my tanks are of the BB type, as there are no 'shoot 'em up' IR tank clubs in the Highlands. What I do, is to simulate a proving ground in my garden, to put the tanks though their comparative paces: handling slopes, scaling obstacles and so on. It's interesting to see whether the scale version has the same handling characteristics as the grown-up version. If you have a garden, it can be fun.
Here's an example of a real proving ground, where a Cromwell takes on a Sherman in a climbing over obstacles trial:
