Is this a hop up ?

[svenb]

In my obsessive search for hop ups for my cars I have found Tamiya 53130.

I fancy dying the spur gears and other nylon parts on my Group C cars using the Tamiya dye, maybe the pink on the Daytona Thunder and blue on the Jag xjr12!? And being a 53*** part number I must be justified in doing so, after all it IS a hop up!.

Or maybe I'm being a bit silly🙄

Ima go with silly.... surprised those are the colors they would go with

Come on someone has to try these off the wall Tamiya projects. Like the Tamiya wind generator set. 

Actually being in renewable energy a scale model wind generator sounds pretty cool to me. How dorky is that?

Rit dye will achieve the same end result with a far wider choice of colours
