This friday, I will be racing.......
 

.......you will have to guess:D

Go on then do share ...

Its retro, Tamiya, and should look good alongside your Holiday Buggy

The mind boggles, it could be anything. :confused:

I'm taking the kids to Bingham Christmas Fair so I'll not be racing this Friday (there goes all chance of qualifying again), but will be ready to go on Saturday morning.

Just been looking at the KF on the Schumacher website and now need to wipe the dribble off the keyboard. C'mon Santa! :wub

If it is a Dyna Blaster I see a Rustler in my future :)

A bit before the Dyna Storm, closer to your Traxxas but will still probably be beaten by it!!

It could be anything, a Bear Hawk would be cool though :) Always liked the scale looking shell on that.

The Bandit's advantage is that the huge steel gears can take a V8 in terms of power.... But limit the motors and I think the Tamiya's could give it a challenge if not beat it. The Bandit isn't exactly a feather weight.

Does this mean I need to bring the thundershot then lads?

Scott.

Bearhawk is closest guess so far (im actually watching one on ebay at the moment), though it is more of Thundershot era, won't be as quick as the Thundershot though - I would like to race against your Thundershot with my Manta Ray when I've finished it.

Let me know when its ready and chuck an esc and stuff in the thundershot :thumbsup:

Scott.

It really could be anything... Tamiya has released a bazillion chassis and a bazillion models per chassis.

PS: Fox?

And thats why im watching a bazillion items on the bay at the moment!!

PS, a Fox is even closer, would like one but they are quite expensive at the moment.

One more clue, its got the rear axle from your Camaro and has a sting in its tail!

HORNET!!!! Cool :)

1984 original too!

It takes a brave soul to race that. What motor are you going to use? Castle Mamba Monster and 6S?

Now there's an idea!

Definately something silver - probably a 27t. Don't think its ballraced so will take it very carefully

I raced an original Grasshopper a few years ago when we ran a "vintage" series. That thing jumped like a brick and landed like a meteorite. :lol:

Also used to race an original Astute at club level (too many years ago to admit) - loved that car, although there was a "bit" of chassis flex to contend with...

I was sent the wrong shell, was supposed to be a red Toyota and ended up with a green Mazda 6 / Dodge Stratus thingy... :-/

Looks like it belongs in the touring car class :(

Thats nasty :thumbdown: ..

if you put that in the clubman, ill boycot the race :thumbsup:

PS dont think I can make this Friday, they put in rotherham on a friggin friday!!!!!!!!:mad:

Oh, the Hornet ---- friggin love it! -Yes the back end will be jumping around like th BIT**, but yeah - ill dig the TShot out - may even try and get a new body for it?

Scott.

Sweet! Might be an easy way to beat you!
