Thanks :-)
I found a cheaper printing service in Germany; if I'm remembering correct the printed tracks were about 60 EUR and that's ok for this resistable track version.

Love to see this one in camo, Freddy! It's such a great build, and the Caunter scheme is really something.

It does seem to run well, but does it waltz? :)

Ausgezeichnet! Aber was für ein Geräusch hört man am Ende? So ein Geräusch ist mir bekannt, aber ich erinnere doch nicht warum.

Extraordiary! But what was the sound right at the end? The sound is familiar to me, but I just cannot remember why.

that is because the driver did not know exactly the functions of the remote control :)
