Lovely car! Would you mind sharing info on the oil shocks? I'm in need of a set for my Tamtech Buggy Champ.

Love the looks of this kit. I wonder if a dual-motor 4wd would be possible..

This is just all kinds of cool! And what a rare find. I honestly wouldn't mind making a few 'active' static display shelf queens like such for my collection.

I really like how the angles and shapes in the frame are enhanced by the wheels. The fact that this is all Kyosho gives even more of a resto-mod feel to it. Just a lovely piece of work you have here..

The XX4 is indeed a very special car. Owned one with a Novak Super Sport brushless setup. To date perhaps the most balanced and capable car I've had the pleasure of driving. You've got quite the classic with matched cells and all. Top notch time-capsule indeed.

Project blitzer beetle 'r' (part 1)

Love the steering mod. If you indeed intend on track use, perhaps some added support to the front and rear shock towers would be in order.

Tamtech buggy champ
Rob606
Lovely Buggy Champ! Indeed the best handling model of the Tam Tech buggy series in my opinion. The front suspension makes all the difference. As Jersey RC noted, these things surprisingly handle moderate brushless power as long as the diff is properly adjusted and looked after. The optional alloy diff halves are a worth it if you can find a set.

Really love the attention to detail and how you've managed to incorporate the Monster Beetle's rear bumper. Did you shave the rear fenders down a bit as well? Finally, how does this rig drive with the longer suspension travel?

Ah.. the Super Blackfoot... the time Tamiya FINALLY got it all right. Best body style, gearbox design and kit price.. and then what happens? Discontinue it. Bah! Well, sucks that you sold it on.. (and not to me!)

Absolute gem! I recognize distinctive Japanese production techniques on the speed controller circuit board and nuts as well as the brackets used to hold the steering servo in place.

Iconic is the word that comes to mind here. Some TC members create painstakingly accurate replicas of box art. Others add a bit of flair to their models and show some creativity. You sir, have transcended that to another level. This is one of those models that people will refer back to years and years from now when referencing the 'best-of'.. Congrats!

Turned out very nice! How's that DeWalt motor working out? Looks beastly and well used.

My christmas beetle
TurnipJF
Absolutely love your attention to detail, especially to the motor giving almost a tehnicgold-esque look to it. Top that off with actual performance enhancements to said motor (bearings, timing advance) and I have to say I'm going to try this out myself!

Amazing! I love the small details like the Tamiya front shock brackets used for rear strut brace supports, very clever! How does this thing run/handle compared to stock?

Lovely collection you have! I'm in awe of the engineering behind these on-road chassis. The balance of components and use of shapes in the chassis plates to allow for the proper amount of flex.. its just fascinating!
