  1. the TT01 chassis that i had with this in my opinion, had way too much plastic! i suppose i could have hopped it up but i couldnt be bothered, i like the TA01 chassis better. i have been out today doing some proper rallying! have a butchers.........
  2. a few months back i bought a lancia delta TT01 kit with the finished body, ran it once and hated the chassis and then sold it but kept the bodyshell+wheels. a couple of weeks ago i saw a TA01 chassis on ebay and won it, as you well know the original release was a TA01. what i want to know is, can i put it in my showroom as 58117 or do i leave it as 58342? anyhoo here's a pic! andy.
  3. the hotshot 2 seems to be the least favourite out of the hotshots, as the hotshot and supershot always seem to go for 'top dollar!' but 30quid for a hotshot2 is a very nice price, keep in mind that if you plan to restore it the front bumper (c-tree) will cost you a small fortune!! unless tamiya re-release the hotshot they are very hard to come across, the oval block tires are quite plentiful on ebay and by the look of the one's in the picture's your gonna need em. the hotshot 2 is a fantastic car so go for it!! andy.[]
  4. sounds like me with my thunder shot, i loved running it over the ramp that you brought to the nook meet/clumber park meets as it just flies and gets major air. i must admit when i had ramped it about 10+ times it did show signs of distress on the chassis. but i think every car/truck/buggy has weak points, and tamiya employ us to find em![] and what fun it is!
  5. by the looks of things i think it will be a bit damp tomorrow, so make sure your cars can run in slightly moist conditions!! hehe
  6. hey andy mate, how strict are they about not running nitro's on saturday's? is it a no go, or can i put one tank's worth of fuel through a tamiya nitro blaster? []
  7. not long to go now, i cant wait! i hope the weather stays nice for us?[Y]
  8. the technigold thats in my thundershot ive had it for about 2 and a half years and i havent replaced the brushes yet, its been used quite a lot too. andy.
  9. i run my thundershot in stock form, the only thing i have changed is the motor from the kitbox 540 to a technigold with a 17-tooth pinion gear. it's by far the fastest buggy i own! i love running it because the tire's are bald and it does wicked donuts on slippy surfaces. by the way mine isnt a re-release[]. the topforce re-release is a fantastic car of which i just recieved one, it was built, painted and decalled within a week! i have run it once outside on a rugby pitch and it was great its fully ballraced with a tamiya type RZ motor, i cant recommend the topforce enough. i love its looks too although from a distance it looks like a baja camp which is a dreadful car!! (sorry if you own one!?)[6]
  10. i will have to ajust the shocks on my topforce if im gunna ramp it, the bigwig flies so no probs there![<)]
  11. just finished these two 'bad boys'! i havent run the topforce yet, im waiting to get it the track!
  12. what, like this? this is a video still from clumber.
  13. moosey's just before he killed it, just before it hit the ramp the back end hit the floor and bounced and so it hit the ramp awkwardly and broke both upper rear suspenion arms! heres mine in the air at clumber!
  14. i will be running a re-re topforce and bigwig! im only taking these two cus i want to get some of the action on video cam this time, last time all i got was moosey killing his supashot!
  15. morelike superman post, 4 days an i had my topforce!![]
  16. the topforce has white wheels and the tf evo has red wheels, but in some showrooms i have seen topforce's with blue, green wheels. are these painted or available to buy from somewhere, or are they a rare hopup? cheers, andy.[]
  17. i'll be there with a couple of new runners+video cam[H] , andy.
  18. this is me! this was taken a few months ago, just after my boy kristian was born. big pile of nappies and big bags under my eyes!
  19. ordered a topforce on thursday, i do hope it comes quick! you were also cheaper than the other sellers too![Y]
  20. im gonna try my 'shot cam car again, it was the tape that made it go funny at clumber but ive got a new tape so fingers crossed it'll work this time![]
