    Has anyone seen or heard of celebrities flying rc helis? I mean people like pop stars footballers etc as they had loads of wonga and quite a considerable amount of spare time.

    Its not unusual to see Tom Jones flying !!! Sorry :smilielol5:

                        Not often we have to correct you Tim, but Shane is riding for Stelgarda Ducati in World Superbikes, (as does Leon Haslam). He did ride in GPs a couple of years ago on a non competitive bike.
