    Cebit 2005 Hannover

    Finally got round to posting up the pictures from CeBit. I was invited out to Cebit 2 weeks before the show. I ended up driving there and did 1588 miles round trip!

    Lots of good cases in the show, well done to Robert with the Aquarium PC. Shame I didn't get any prizes, but was defiantly a great experience being my first case mod competition.

    I can belive that, and I bet that CeBit isn't the easiest place to get prices.

    RC Room

    Hi all, Well its been a long time coming... I finally cleared out the box room and turned it into my RC workshop. The Lan Truck finally has a home amongst its fellow kind. Also what a better way to have PC in a RC display. Does not stand out :D Apart from when its running of course :hehe:

    Working on the trailer over the next few weeks to make it look more in keeping with the main truck. Anyway just thought I would update you all.

    Hi Javadog, yep that is the special edition metallic Tamiya Knight Hauler. I got it 1 week after it was launched :D . I think one of the first in the uk!! So glad I built the Lan Truck even more so now, I have a room dedicated to my RC's :rock:

    Cebit evening drive

    Hi All, Thought as the review of cebit is up on the site I would add a few more pics of when I left the show. As I said I drive my LAN Truck all over. So I drove it out of the venue into the evening rain, and took shots of the Lantruck!

    Beautiful mod. Did any water get inside it, when you took it out in the rain. Amd very well excuted, bity about hte placement of the wheels on the trailer though (i assume its for balance). It would have looked that little bit better (and fitted in with the truck better) if had the standard wheel layout on the trailer (2 on the back, 1 on the front).
