Plus an answer to the question... why were Novak produ...

Did you know Tamiya models were sold complete with mechanical speed controllers, motors and bodies? If you didn't, Tamiya wanted to make sure you did, devoting an entire full-page ad to inform buyers of the pluses to their kits and pitfalls that may await others. Predominantly displayed at the top o...
