It was a real learning experience for me and a whole lot of fun.
Anyway here are some of the paint jobs Ive been responsible for. The Azarashi body is my last and current lid and in my opinion the best lid you'll find for the Tamiya.

Wow! nice paint jobs!
What I like about the 501x is it's optimized for nimh cells.
The 511 is better suited for Lipo thats the only difference I see between them.
The 511 they made a little bit different shifted the cells forward that kinda thing.
I put a B44 battery tray with the thumb screws in my worlds edition 501x.
It fit perfectly, I was surprized. That is what look I wanted for my 501x,
and the 511 body fits on my car perfectly the
thumb screws have about an inch before they touch the body, so
I still have plenty of room in my car. Now to get it on the track this
winter and i'll surely give you guys some insight.
