Car trouble!

At the moment the nitro RC car I will be using to film the advert and use in the media texts has broken down. "Flying point racing probe 2000".
This is due to many reasons;
  1. It is very old by about 20 years. Which is alot in the RC car manufactures.
  2. The nitro fuel I bought at 16% nitro was too much, burning out the clutch and the engine off revv's too much. It is used to 5%.
  3. When I tested it in the summer holidays, which was when the clutch went. It flipped, maybe damaging the engine and it hit the ground at a funny angle.
  4. Now the engine isn't tuned to the nitro fuel so it over revvs and stalls as it trys to move with out controling it.
At the minute it is trying to be fixed. The hard part is that the company that made it doesn't exist anymore. Meaning nor do the spare parts.
I do have a back up plan which doesn't mean filming the car moving, Which I can use if it doesn't get fixed.


This is to have the car still, With the background moving behind it, With single shots of different terrain, like a spinning wheel of pictures.
This will still advertise the game as to show what you can expect in the game its self.
