thats 250 aussie dollars i have always liked the "shot" series although i heard a rumor they might be comming up for rerelease soon and im not that much of a nut to care if its a orig or a rerelease badword i wasnt even born when this car came out
would have to put era gear in the rerelease though..
any ideas? cheers

that to me looks like a kyosho
i know they did a few RWD 1:12 that looked similar and they went throught a FWD fettish for abit could be one.. i would suggest looking it up as a kyosho

richy also be carful getting T limits on older ESCs they are older so current draw
from older motors arent quite the same also older fets blow easyer understress

so heres the deal..
girlfreind has been convinced to let me buy her a RC because she likes the hornet so im buying her a hornet.. probly run a 20ish turn motor in it (lol probly wont keep up with the BL trucks modded nitros and my new jato)
i need to know how to make this thing reliable.. i got a mate who has a truck load of them eg 3 or so and a box of spares.. so what are the main things to look out for? and what upgrades are avalible for them (oil shocks?)
cheers

i think this is a WAY better drifter that the yoks.. they were tragic there tyres/rings were expensive and wore tons they were fragile bad news when u first learning to drift in terms of chassis i would rather have a solid tt01.. as for drift tyres on it well tamiya dont have a good rep for good race tyres dunno what there drift tyres are gonna be like i assume they will be a solid ABS tyre??
