Hi guys,thought I would share some pics of my Tamiyas.I promised myself I wouldnt buy anymore Tamiya cars around 6 months ago and have somehow ended up with more.Just love those scale looks.My favorite and most recent edition is my Supershot.The pictures in the listing for this car were very poor so I took a bit of a gamble and I think it payed.Its in very nice condition and will be very easy to clean up.It came with a almost mint 1200 sc battery and a 1400 Tamiya pack aswell.I got the Top force evo in a trade with a good freind [Mad racer].Love the sleak looks of this car and plan on throwing some electrics at it and running it real soon.I am also currently putting together a Monster beetle and one of my all time faivorite Tamiyas,the Hornet.Enjoy the pics.

Nice pics James.

I well put togeather Tamiya 4wd always goes well.

Its ashame to me that alot of people think that they are only for beginners.

Think about it.

Tamiya always had a MID 4wd motor placement unlike some others.

They have there faults like all but never really updated the problems. Instead just realised another buggy with better devolpment.
Example:: Hot Shot. SuperShot. Boomerang. Big Wig.

Yes there are other companys with better cars but Tamiya weren't that bad to me.

Cheers.
