Gruntfuggly 562 Posted March 24, 2008 Why exactly would you expect anybody on this forum to start posting on your new one? No offence, but we've got thousands of members on here already, so whats the point to posting on a new one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bakaguyjean 7 Posted March 25, 2008 I your idea. You are missing the Kawada M300GT. This chassis is like a DDM but is better over all. I will sign up later for your forum. How do you sponcer the site? Also the 356 picture you have would make a nice logo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bakaguyjean 7 Posted March 25, 2008 i signed up on your site Do you need help with anything? my name is (takotuning) on your site. I like you idea as there are alot of people that do not speak English that need a place to talk about M-chassis cars. I can only look at the pictures but thats enough for me. Good luck and let me know if you need any help or would like some info about Mini stuff as i have a fair bit of it. I was just looking at the scan section and you have some nice info there. If you guys like M-Chassis stuff take a look at the scan area its nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. ED 5 Posted September 19, 2008 I went over and found you have 2 series for kyosho: Alta and Mantis. I don't know the alta and there's no post in the section yet. Are those the mini cooper with a box chassis similar looking to the frog one? You should add kyoshos predecessor of the Tamiya M-chassis also: the peugeot 205 and honda CRX FWD's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its based off the Super Alta 1/12th car. here is my Super Alta http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...70&sid=6590 The Peugot and Honda are nice cars would like to have one of those bad boys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glad to hear you're driving it as well. yes it is, here's my own new built example.http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...087&sid=297 I always for some unclear reason liked this chassis type, well not allways, pretty much from the day a friend 'borrowed' me his monsterbeetle long ago: so I could do a repair on it All that , to say, I'd seen your mini long ago just forgotten it was called Alta. After I clicked the link it took me less than 2 sec's to remember I had seen your hole-story Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bakaguyjean 7 Posted September 21, 2008 Some nice modifications and great looking combo. Glad to hear you're driving it as well. If you make it around Yokohama we can hook up at my friends circut and scare the locals with some old runners Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. ED 5 Posted September 21, 2008 If you make it around Yokohama we can hook up at my friends circut and scare the locals with some old runners My wife's from Yokohama and I've been to Yatabe and TonTon Land to run vintage before. Do you run buggies as well? Today I raced my YR-4 in the challengers class. Once a month we have an on-road race in Nagoya: indoor. PS: look for the rc-magazine of this month; There's a picture of me and my cars at the Ahiru event in gifu! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bakaguyjean 7 Posted September 21, 2008 This is my Ahiru Brat from a few years ago. http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...21&sid=6590 and my mini http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...22&sid=6590 niC,Sato,and lugerman are old friend of mine, I race with them when i get the chance but Yokohama is alot closer to me than Toyoma.Sometimes I make it to Aichi for Real "M" but i do most of my driving here. http://www.d-drivesports.com/ This is mainly F1 but we have dug out buggies for a change of pace. My next event is World Drome where I will have a prototype Indy car body on Display for D-Drive Sports.Cross is doing our test shot this week. Give me a PM if you are headed this way Just give me advanced warning. P.S. you are not one of those english teachers are you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. ED 5 Posted September 22, 2008 This is my Ahiru Brat from a few years ago.http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...21&sid=6590 Makes me whish even more I had found brat wheels and tires instead of the grashopper ones sitting on the pick-up on the left: and my minihttp://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...22&sid=6590 Plenty mini's at Ahiru this year also. niC,Sato,and lugerman are old friend of mine, I race with them when i get the chance but Yokohama is alot closer to me than Toyoma. Sometimes I make it to Aichi for Real "M" but i do most of my driving here. Not sure if I met them; didn't catch many names and definitely no forum names. Also have never been to the permanent onroad site of barbiere yet http://www.d-drivesports.com/This is mainly F1 but we have dug out buggies for a change of pace. Nice track, I would pull my 1/18 converted kyosho peugeot 205 out for this. Only has a stock mabuchi 540 motor in it, but with 1/10 scale touring foams and al ightweight mini-battery it's a lot faster than the peugeot would have been. My next event is World Drome where I will have a prototype Indy car body on Display for D-Drive Sports.Cross is doing our test shot this week.Give me a PM if you are headed this way Just give me advanced warning. P.S. you are not one of those english teachers are you? Noooo! I'm working as technical manager for our (very small) local sales and support office. The first sunday of october is buggy race day at Yatabe and has a vintage class. I'm hoping to go , but it doesn't look very promissing right now. Pitty. Been a long while I last met Tanaka from time-tunnel and Aku. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
