Hi everyone, l have now finished my Super Hotshot and the total cost came to about £100 in total so l would say a real Bargain! I probably will still hunt out the original gold wheels with pin spike tyres at some point but quite happy with the set l have on right now and the chrome goes well l think! What do you think guys??
The Super Hotshot/ Super Shot is such a bad ass looking buggy and along with the Hotshot an absolutely classic buggy. I am Super happy to have this to go with my Hotshot! Come on Tamiya we need the original HS2 now!!! Sorry the BHM just will not satisfy! Haha but still wouldn't say no!!
Anyway l finally had the weather and took some pics today and included my Hotshot also as its great to see them together! Hope you like them and comments welcome cheers James.

Looking good buddy, you've been very lucky indeed with your purchases lately! I hope the standard HS2 will be released some time soon, I'd really like to get one.

Superb! Nice pics too!

Lovely build James, and as you know from my showroom I love this car, but for me mate it needs the gold wheels with pin spike tyres, but maybe I'm being boring?! Haha! What a bargain though. Definitely an inflation busting purchase, and there's not many of those around today. Well done buddy

Awesome James! one of my fav buggy.. oh well maybe some I will get one too. I think the VQS wheels painted in gold with pin spike tires will look really cool. Retro and yet modern at the same time haha.

Great outcome, the wheels look good, but I’m a bit with Bubba, Goldie’s with pin spikes make the Super Shot IMO. One of mine in my showroom also has different wheels so they definitely have a place on this buggy, but the Goldie’s still get the win for me.

Thanks guys really appreciate your great comments and feedback and definitely agree with you about the wheels/tyres l will be on the look out for a gold/spiked set! The chrome ones will do nicely for running but yeah this needs the real boots on it! Anyone got a set for sale?

They do look very good together on the beach. I know for sure I could not have resisted the urge to drive those, it would physically hurt to put them on an empty beach, take pictures, pick them up and walk away. Oh boy that trembling throttle finger LOL.

Iol absolutely mate! if l didn't have to go back to damn work! and the beach was perfect that day too!

Looking good! Always love your shots on the beach. Here hoping we get the HS2 in original form - though also wouldn’t mind one for modern power either ??
MAD-BEE
Yeah too right Cynan l really hope tamiya rere the original HS2 it surely is on for rere but no changes to the roll cage or anything please tamiya!

Not bad at all! And awesome shots! However I'm a tad disappointed from not seeing you surfing in the background there mate!
MAD-BEE
Imao mate l am still practicing of course! That would be a great competition entry for lets say a topic of other hobbies alongside RC, me surfing in the distance with a action beach shot of a buggy up close! Iol lt would take some amazing timing and l would not look a pretty sight but imagine that! Thanks buddy.

Looks like a great set of tarmac tyres, how soft are they?
MAD-BEE
Taffer they are nice and soft but no inserts! They will definitely do a nice job generally though l feel!
