Just wondering what you guys & gals would want made into rc?

Who knows Mr Tamiya may be watching!.

For me, i would like to see the following for starters:-

1. Audi R8, stunning to look at and part of the VAG group ( i'm a vw/audi fan). Could just see this with an led kit for those lights!.

2. Alfa Romeo 8c Competitione.

3. Bugatti Veyron.

4. Vintage Racing cars (1930s Bugatti's, Jim Clark's Lotus, Stirling moss' Mercedes Benz 300-SLR Mille Milia.

5. Volkswagen Golf MK 2 GTI, it would be cool if you could get one of these with a choice of front grilles (single lamp euro style, or the traditional twin version a la ABC Hobby style). I think ABC could be onto something with their body options.

Anyway whats on your wish list?

Cheers

Colin.

A Veyron would be awesome, does anyone even make a Veyron body?

I saw the Top Gear episode where they took the Veyron to max speed, wow that was an adrenaline rush just to watch!

I wish they still made F1 open wheels cars like the F201 series.

For me there is no need to sit and think about it. I would absolutely love to any of the 60's Formula One race cars, but sticking with the Japanese theme, it would have to be either the Honda RA273, or the RA300.

Oh baby! How many of those kits would I buy if they existed? :P

My definite first choice would be a Jeep M715 scale crawler:

Some have called it the "Greatest 4x4 on Earth," but Landy fans might take offense at that. Its a pet favorite of mine, a Jeep thing you wouldn't understand!

But I'd also like to see someone make a scale, affordable, solid rear axle trophy truck.

More rally cars on "proper" shaft-driven rally chassis - the TT01 is NOT a rally chassis!

A scale Land Rover SWB with proper solid axles. Either a shortened F350 chassis or the new CR01 chassis.

A stadium truck that can run with the HPI and Traxxas massiv out of the box. Maybe a "Wild Dagger Evo" that has the stock WD chassis and gearboxes, but with modded motor mounts for extra pinion options, 4" adjustable oil shocks, single- or twin-battery mounting option, maybe even supplied without motor or speedo so buyers have the option of fitting low-turn 540s or twin-battery 550s.

A new monster that builds on the TXT-1's strengths and conquers its weaknesses. Clocked axles as standard and central gearbox with outputs mounted at downward angles for optimum articulation without propshaft binding. Build option for conventional or cantilever shocks depending on whether it'll be used for racing or crawling. Lockable diffs.

:P

I would like to see a new modern rally car chassis along with some of the older bodies back for a time such as the celica GT four which I would love to have one but cannot afford the shells these days :P

Would also like to see as miga has said more 3 speed based things with scale detail and mechanics. Id love a proper dakar support truck maybe an Man or an Actros would be gr8 :rolleyes:

also some more interesting updates to some of the older chassis, all I seem to be able to buy now is a TT01 or a TA05

cheers
