Re: New Tamiya Release
That looks a lot more realistic that the other F104 bodied car. Really cool if its priced similarly then it would be around $375.

Re: New Tamiya Release
Not sure where you're coming from. I used to race F201's, they performed as well as any TC that was out at the time. Tamiya should have taken note of the 3racing chassis that was available back then and did a non-plastic version.shodog wrote:Ugghh! the F201 was an absolute dog of a chassis.MelvinsArmy wrote:Looks cool.

Re: New Tamiya Release
At least tamiya has a full top deck on this chassis. The F-103 had it as a hop-up. The T bar and gear box look to be the same as the F-103.

Re: New Tamiya Release
In addition to a boat load of other hop ups, I have the 3R carbon chassis for mine. The problem I had is that you can't gear it low enough to keep the motor from overheating.

Re: New Tamiya Release
I am just happy I will have a proper body, or close to it, for a Vettel Red Bull Racing replica.

Re: New Tamiya Release
We just ran Sport Tuned motors in ours, so overheating was never a problem. I wish I could remember the gear ratio we ran, it was different than stock. It ran pretty quick that that Sport Tuned, and it handled so well.

Re: New Tamiya Release
That car is flippin awesome!!! Too many cool things coming out. I'm going to have to unload 2 of my 3 F201s and maybe my MIB Toyota Prerunner to offset my recent expenses.

Re: New Tamiya Release
Mine will end up looking like this. Hopefully the Ferrari won't be factory finished.
