Nice set of hop-ups, hi-caps, chassis and a few other things... sweet

This is a original Top Force right out from the box the other chassis was from my Manta Ray and the other chassis was used for my TA-01 Celica GT Four.

The only mods i did on this was the one way front center gear and replacing the brittle plastic motor mount to Tamiya Hop up aluminum ones.

I hear some die hard tamiya fans crying as im reading this, must be tough decision to finally cut those body.. Would really hate to see that one go.... The future owner will definately be one lucky guy..... Did it pushed thru gen...
This is more race worthy (for me) than the avante.... Well thats just me....

No response from him yet but i really decided to keep this Top Force and let go the other one!
That's true this is more race oriented compare with the Avante.
And the Top Force Evolution on the other is far more reliable and tough so far!

Just the last picture taken before i sold it to a friend long long time ago!
