Grumpy pants 4485 Posted September 13, 2020 Just for fun, it can be one of yours or another TC members and it does not have to be a Tamiya. I like too check out a model on you tube before considering buying one and this is my current favourite- 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy_w_beans 4272 Posted September 13, 2020 This is one of my favorites. The format used to present the race gives it some legitimacy with other sports. The announcer's energy is palpable, and that one critical "robust" pass and subsequent driving error makes it truly exciting! This is a nice highlight from Marc Rheinard's career. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tamiya3speed 464 Posted September 13, 2020 Matteo just about anything with Tamiya in it. Honorable mention to his brushless Monster Beetle and most of the CC-01 work. This may be my favorite though: https://youtu.be/aE7inhKjrwY 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J@mes 2326 Posted September 14, 2020 Someone on here once posted a clip of a land cruiser gf01 tumbling about in torrential rain with an upbeat cheerful tune as a backdrop to the action, the editing was slick. It is one of my favourites for sure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re-Bugged 10152 Posted September 14, 2020 So a Blitzer Beetle is on the cards then @Grumpy pants?? This Vid was a stand out for me, I remember watching in hysterics with my daughter a while ago, all harmless fun not deliberately destroying stuff for 5 mins of YT fame. The Tractor loading at 1:40, man alive I could feel the guys pain 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TurnipJF 9192 Posted September 14, 2020 For me it would have to be one of Matteo's off-road adventure videos, but there are so many good ones that it is hard to single out just one favourite. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s model I keep coming back to, but I’ll keep the next one and aside from that I love air cooled VDubs 👍 Great video choice as well, made me chortle on train 😂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ha ha yep - was having a quiet moment at work and got to wondering about 'whatever happened to tamiya??' Thought of my grasshopper from BID and YouTube 'd the hornet - the one I actually wanted and blow me down this came up. Actually ended up getting a re re hotshot as this was my most coveted car from those days, only a while later picking up hornet 👍 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuijo 880 Posted September 15, 2020 Matteo's videos would normally be at the top of the list for me. But for the most part they are of the re-releases. Which is great. It's the re-releases that got me back into a hobby that would otherwise have not held enough interest to drag me away from scale RC boats. But I'm here because of nostalgia, and the root of that nostagia is obviously the originals from the 80's. So my favourite video has to be of an 80's car. When I saw this video I decided nothing was going to stop me from getting a Super Champ. And nothing did. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
