Picked up a Tamiya Fox
Picked up a Tamiya Fox
I've had my eyes open for a Fox for years, and I finally ran into a good deal I just couldn't turn down. My friend had one when I was a kid and I remember racing against it at a few races in high school. Overall was in great shape, just needed cleaning and a few screws. I also removed the factory wiper speed control setup in favor of a Novak ESC. I did do some rewiring so I could use the factory chassis switch to turn the novak on and off. The car is pretty much ready to go, but I think she's also going to be a shelf queen sitting next to my childhood Hornet. On a good note it's nice I can pick up new parts now that the Nova Fox is out!! Took a few pic's of her.

Re: Picked up a Tamiya Fox
I love my Foxes. I think it's because they are so "one off."
Reminds me, need to get another Re-Re for parts and another Hornet.

I miss brushed motors in that hazy, everything seemed better when I was a kid, kind of way.

does it make a Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding sound?
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

It does but the diff in my OG is screwed up. Maybe I shouldn't fix it?gomachv wrote:does it make a Ring-ding-ding-ding-dingeringeding sound?
