twice as expensive almost. well, price has never stopped tamiya before

i dont mind bidding wars with people...its a matter of who wants it more. I do find it crap when people have reserves/bin for several times what it was worth. generally happens after a bidding war and they chuck up thier car/part hoping to make a buck. now, while I do find it crap, its their gear......

BTW, hows everyone's Japanese here?

biitd we could only just make it to the end of a heat, and power was a lot less than now too...hence the milled chassis

with todays electrics, the milled chassis/ weight save isnt necessary, and can now afford to put balancing weights in to improve handling

good topic, im interested in this as well. I think LED lighting would be fine? no UV light to fade decals etc

i had an aeroflyte platapus, .049 powered, rc or freefloat...I had a 1ch setup in it, steering only....was awesome and ive been trying to track down another one since

oooh, lovely porsche, im hoping I can get something like that in the not too distant future


i have a skoda supurb wagon; same as this one -

arrgg...I dont like Re-Re's, but this is essentially what the scorpion should have/could have been...I think my resistance is breaking down

if they are doing then, then an optima and ultima would surely be on the cards as well (well, ultima maybe not so much) what im quite suprised about however is just how quickly the fuss over the rc10 classic died down, I thought we were going to get flooded with new people and build threads etc....n...

i have a list, its reasonably extensive but ive been chipping away at it. I do only collect one example of each car / boat / motor I want though. so space isnt too big of a concern. got around 20 cars to go, 5 boats, 15 motors. hopefully can finish it all off in the next few years before my son is o...

i never found one, but I didnt travel around too much, everything vintage I bought was off yahoo auctions

i love it, would own one if I could afford it the range thing I dont get though, 250 miles (400km/s) is a XXXtload of range...how many people are driving are than that a day? cost wise, yeah its certainly up there, hopefully the next version or two will drop that down a lot. would own one as an ever...

hah, you guys and your little tremors

I wsa in the middle of tokyo for the big one....now that was something to write home about
