Super Champ (Fighting Buggy)
Re: Super Champ (Fighting Buggy)
Tower has updated their price. It is now $359.99. This will be the final price, as I mentioned earlier.
Ordering two.

Sweet...
It cost too much but with tower coupons and easy pay, ima have to get one. Always thought that FS rear suspension with oil res bottle was cool.

Re: Super Champ (Fighting Buggy)
I'm sorry, but when I see how much Tamiya is raping people with their prices, considering how many parts are derived from other re-re models not to mention their old molds, all I can do is shake my head when comparing that to what Kyosho did with the Scorpion re-re & pricing. It's shameless.

Would it be correct to call it a re-reservoir?shodog wrote:the long tube serves as a reservoir to the reservoirdsmith wrote:I wonder if they can make that shock oil tube any longer?????...theres probably a reason for that.....

Re: Super Champ (Fighting Buggy)
ahhh....so it's a reserve reservoir for the reservoir....see,,,, I knew there was a reason for that.shodog wrote:the long tube serves as a reservoir to the reservoirdsmith wrote:I wonder if they can make that shock oil tube any longer?????...theres probably a reason for that.....
Re: Super Champ (Fighting Buggy)
But wait...
I read somewhere that the reason for the high prices are: the gear box is now made from forged aircraft aluminium, the gears are light weight and titanium coated running on hollow carbon shafts, new ball diff with ceramic bearings adjustable from the outside, and there is an ingenious slipper to boot.
Then I realised it was a dream

Re: Super Champ (Fighting Buggy)
Looks like original rear bumpers and spring arms will still be hard to source as they are clearly different on the new buggy but happy to see the grey front bumper will be available.
If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.
