I built a Tamiya RC over the winter, just to feel like a kid again. Mine's a McLaren, but I still haven't picked up the controller! Gotta get off my ass... |

I used to be into those. Then i got a license. About 4 years ago i bought an HPI RS4. It was state of the art, carbon fiber everything. It was fun. I need a new body for it, the accord body has to go. |

Bet you my CLK-GTR could beat you My next body is going to be the 360...that one will be just for show, won't be racing that one. Upgrade your motor, once you do it you'll think your old motor was sooo slow. |

yes. its a Tamiya. got it on ebay from a guy from Japan. had to build EVERYTHING. transmission, suspension, put the shocks together and fill with oil, adjust toe, mask and paint the body, apply stickers, etc. it takes less time to take care of my real F cars. its a 1/10th scale 4WD so traction is great. goes about 25-30 mph with a stock motor. will go faster with a modified motor but then would have bigger crashes.

Gotcha !!! It is a little smaller than my other one and not as fun, but it fits in my office better than the other one.
