I have come to confess...

I have come to confess that I may have some kind of zipzap sickness. I can't stop collecting these little babies.. in a way its good news that they might be ending, so I can finally stop buying them. Couple of questions:

1. Namuna posted a few stickies that were some kind of database to ALL of the car bodies ever created. I got one of the two to work but it didn't look complete. Is there a definitive list with pictures somewhere?
2. It sounds like it might be wise to buy a number of the new Bond car kits because of their superior craftmanship? Does everyone still stand by that?
3. Has anyone here had much sucess racing 6 or more cars? I've never actually done it but starting to setup my track now. With all of the testing I've done it seems like there has been occasions where one car will interfere with another somehow even if they are on different channels.
4. Also, Is it possible to race 6 SE's with one (or two) non-SE's, or does the 27MHZ model interfere?
5. Which battery and where to buy-- is the "best" replacement battery to buy?
6. Has anyone ever come up with a lap counter that works for 6 cars?
7. Are there any definitive threads on painting the bodies, should I strip off the existing paint or is it ok to just paint over it?
8. Is TINYRC the most used zipzap forum?
9. Are there any threads out here with creative racing games and/or strategies.. For example, I was wondering about setting up a "jam car" where it operates on the same freq as one of the racers (randomly) and then it serves as an obstacle as the race goes on. Or how about 3-on-3 zip zap soccer game with a mini subbuteo soccer ball and goals?! See pictures below!
