Well it's been a long time coming but finally I've found one.... and a real good one at that. Many thanks to Bruce (wilton84) for selling it to me. Most of the parts are either new or in very good used condition. I've done a few minor tweeks to it and fitted a new pair of shock towers...... not that it needed them but for $6usd each it would have been rude not to. The original body was in good condition but wasn't 100% boxart so this one was sourced from TC member Ralphee (many thanks Lee). A very cool car..... and now I can see what all the fuss is about :)

Agreed, it's a really agressive and cool looking car! For me it's kinda Tamiya's first 'serious' competition 2WD car. And did you know that it actually existed in a 201X variant? (full carbon etc) Kinda the start of TRF...

A nice example and a very understated piece of kit that should be given more credibility as a collector's piece.

Nice score....after ignoring these for years after they came out I finally wised up and got one a few years ago.

The only problem now is that I've never driven one of these before and I'm starting to get an itchy trigger finger. This one is definately a shelfer so I may have to find a well used example to use as a runner.

Definetely get that second example to run They're an absolute blast and with a few small precautions it's extremely durable, too!
