Thanks for reply, width is ok, just need something that will grip. Too much wheel spin and loads of over steer Plus i don't know what size they are?

Hi, Just recently got a Jagermeister Capri. I am running brushless / lipo and it is very quick, too quick for the slick tyres on tarmac. anyone recommend a good tyre for this TT02 chassis. Regards Darren

It is really sad that model shops are going. As a kid i went to 3 model shops and they have gone now.I know it is all internt based now but just going into a good model shop is awsome! (touchy feely)Beatties was great, now i believe it is now Model Zone :-(I would love to own my own model shop

I am always suspicious with ebay. He is no longer an ebay member. I was looking at a Wild Willy on ebay the other day, aution said "selling this on behalf of a friend because he does not have an ebay account" The same Wild willy was sold on ebay about 3 weeks previous (no account eh!) I allways check feedback and look at completed listings Glad you got your money back but the juggernaut would of been better

Get a set of Ansmann 55mm dampers of ebay for about £8 pair :-)

They are pretty tough. The only thing that happened to mine was one of the 5mm ball joints on the servo saver worked loose, a bit of araldite did the trick. Have fun :-)

It has been a while, but we had a good week of sun a while ago, so it gave me chance to finish of the painting of the body. Applied the decals, just need to finish of the paint details.

I have just done a resto on MB and i bought a Blitzer Beetle shell, that one is identicle to the MB (regards the mounting holes) The re-re SS shell is identicle to the BB and MB apart from the mounting holes Just a matter of filling and drilling

hi. click on the link below, it might help regards the different bodies http://www.tamiya101.com/article_sand_scorcher_shells.asp

You are right, Tamiya seem to have no logical thinking on there re-re's. some are really faithfull to the original and then they completly mess it up..... It seems to be when they put a '2/II' after it. If they bring out a Monster Beetle II, forget it......

Hi, I painted my Hotshot from the outside with PS paint, i did find that temp affected the out come Cold = Matt finish Hot = Satin finish

Sometimes they just get right in the way

Been collecting a few bits to build an original Hornet (my first ever RC) Hope to start the build soon

I have a Speed Passion, the Castle ones look good, as for the EZrun they good value for money. I was'nt looking for the speed of light power, just something better than the brushed. Trying to bring myself into the 21st century. The extra pics look good, (19th one down looks cool)

This defo a re-re, because of the chassis and body from the pics Regards

Hi Graham, As you mention the Hornet, i am in the process of buying parts for making an original. Many parts are used in the re-re but if you dowload the manuals and study them, there are a few slight differences. Regards the Hornet, it is the Chassis, Body, front up-rights, B parts, axle spring, decals, colour of the screws, resistor and plate, etc If you need any help regards the Hornet PM me Regards

It was the first pic that was the give away Got a brushless for my Hotshot a while ago, only running the standard NiMH for now. Never had a brushless before, they are really qiuet compared to brushed motors.

Hi all, Need a little help please, just got my first brushless set-up, a Speed Passion - Inspire V2.0 RTR Combo Set at the moment i am using a normal NiMH pack and i have noticed the difference in speed compared to a brushed motor. I was wandering if anyone has had any experiance with LiFe batteries, if they give more power than NiMH. I dont want 200mph speed just something to give that extra umph, just thought it might be a cheaper option than going the hole Lipo route Regards

Very nice shots, the Hotshot Family are the best cars ever What are you running in there, coz i see i Lipo!
