or several it seems.............and I'm not that crazy about them. Give me a beatup old balsa or plastic airplane anytime.

But this thing is incredible, and from the same guy that put my other two together.

Beautyful shot, brings back memories of my own WEBRA Diesels made in Berlin 50 years ago. Excellent craftsmanship. Are you gonna fuel it and let this WEBRA run ? Video ? ?.
btw. I see lots of potential to lighten this engine/body Alu frame.

In the nothern part of "Blackwood forest" Germany.



first run 274,98 Kmh





I watched for Mr. Picco R.I.P. Italy himself
like he set up a "New World Record" in .60 class. ; - ))
And I say: watta noiiiiiiise !.
I am sure close to 6 Italian horses in power must have pull this car to reach that speed.





due to a lack of young talent, this sport will also die out.

Cool Peter

I also had a 3.5ccm glow Webra that my mother bought me when she visited beyond the Iron Curtain back in the early 70-s...a true masterpiece, I do not have that anymore...

Thanks for those videos Peter, I watched all of the first one and portions of two and three. Would have liked to see closeups of the cars. I guess the idea is to guide them until they reach sufficiant centrifugal force then climb the pole. And the speeds, just a blur.

I won't be running any of them, I have a clapped out Cox Mercedes and altered Cox Champion for that.

The seller is an artist, not Rembrandt or Picasso maybe but an artist never-the-less. He's a jeweler and very European.

I have a couple of Webras Andras, beautiful engines.

nope,
the whiping man @ center circle/pole accelerates the Car till smooth pipe reso response mode.
At this point he steps up and
from this point everey engine/car is on his own and must work for it self.
All cars are powered by glows with tuned pipe , no whiping , no resonance , no rpms , NO Power,
like F2A
