A new purchase and my second front wheel drive Tamiya. Bought as you can see here from fellow TC member Prescient. Mark has been excellent thus far, very polite on our email conversations about the model.



'I built this Tamiya Mini Cooper (M-03L) in May this year. Its been kept on the shelf and unused. Steering servo (Acoms AS 12) is included. Only been bench tested.' (advert)



I'm not 100% sure what I will do with this as yet. I do have a fair few Hop Ups for the M-03 allready that are destined for my Swift (M-03M) for racing next year, may test them on this one first. I have a full spare set of radio equipment and a spare ESC so it will be a runner.



If i'm permitted to race it I may get a few practice races in before the start of the new series in Jan.



Update -



Three race meetings under my belt. A third in one of the heats my best result, few teething issues but so much fun. Now running a dry shimmed diff and the difference is amazing.



Next season kicks off in Jan, i'll be points scoring then hopefully and it wil be a tough choice between this and my Swift.






On display, ready to race The view most will get ;) Front suspension, arms just about level Rear Suspension, again arms level 2 degree neg rear arms apparent here Race rear, managed a 3rd in 3rd race meeting!
