A blast from the past, the Black Foot takes on EPR
 

After a few hours of testing at EPR last week (thanks Steve! i owe you some wonga to put in the club pot!) i decided to give my dads old Tamiya Black Foot a burn round the track............Jeeez how things have moved on over the years!:lol:
The lack of propper shocks, speed (it still has the good old silver can motor), any form of handling and the un-earthly sound of CRACK from the ABS bosyshell ringing out at the slightest little mishap really made me appreciate modern RC. I know the Black Foot was never any kind of competition truck but even modern "fun cars" have improved soooo much.

That said i absolutley loved buzzing it round!!! anyone for a vintage truck race?:thumbsup: i havn't had such a laugh in ages! Vintage Tamiya RULES!:lol:

I had one of them , it had rubber washers in the shock body to act as a "damper" and plastic bushes in all the places a ballrace should have been but it was great fun especially with a Reedy mach 1:thumbsup:
