Favourite Off Road Model

[charlea]

As a new person to the Tamiya craze i have always wanted to know what people think is the best offroad model you can get, now and then so to speak! so i have created a poll to see what people think!

If i have missed your favourite out then please add it to a new post!

I choose Avante for the entire Avante series (Avante, Vanquish, Egress, Avante2001)...

Werd, I dream about owning once ever since I saw my uncle's old hobby magazine

[charlea]

yeh i should have said, the car names are generalized like the avante etc as obviously some hold more than 1 model!

[mrbiccies]

What about the High-Lift and XC's (Pajero, Isuzu Mu etc)

[taffer]

My current choice is the Thunder Shot Chassis series!

I would agree with you on that point, I have an F350 of which is an excellent off-roader.

I guess it depends how you define off-roading. I like the DF-03 as a buggy but hate the ball diff's although myself i havent had many issues myself, i have seen a few people with constant issues (like the thrust bearing for the diff).

I have to agree the thundershot chassis was a good one too.

I voted Grasshopper because it's the one I got the most "mileage" out of back in the day, and I'm having a blast with my re-release.

But I have to say, and I know it's blasphemy around here, that my all-time favorite off-road car was a black-tub RC10 Team car. It didn't have the styling of the Tamiya models, but it would run rings around them and was utterly reliable. I replaced it with a B3 that wasn't half as good.

Its a shame it will only allow you to post 20 options really as i know people will want to choose other models which aren't on there!

Dark impact with a pajero Shell - stable, fast and reliable, totally scale racing.

[marcusom]

Dyna Storm. It rocks, especially on brushless and LiPos

Top Force Evolution

Closely followed by the 501x

I agree, there are lots of different kinds of off-roading, the kind I am refering to is "scale-driving", as seen here in Lonbhold's showroom; http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...59&id=13352

sandscorcher ftw

[Yangtao]

Dyna Blaster, best vintage truggy!

[mr_pushrod]

Lunchbox for me. Can't get much more fun than this especially with a faster motor!

[matisse]

madcap!

so much fun it should have been banned!!

[charlea]

so its a close one between the avante series and the hotshots then!

[Big Al]

The Wild One is my all time favorite and it should be on your list of choices!! :-)

[charlea]

If only it was more than 20 choices and it of course would be!
