Very nice indeed! I'd love to have both those cars.
Anyhoo to be content with what I have, which is pretty dam good I've entered an Enduro race on 20 July in a Team of 4 drivers at Castlehill Offroad Club, Sydney AUS. I'll be running my 201XR as each Team requires at least 1 2wd Car. My Daughter is part of the Team and will be running her DB-02 (with a few mods). The other members of our team will be running Schumacher K1s and possibly a TRF511. A K1 will definitely be run, but they are tossing up between another K1 and their 511.
I'm hoping they choose the 511 to make a nearly all Tamiya Team. The race is 5 hours, 4 cars per team, minimum time limits to be applied to all drivers, motors open, batteries limited to 6000mah.
I'm running the 201 in XR (rear motor) as all attempts with the XM at Castlehill, while encouraging, ultimately came to the conclusion that its a rear motor track, especially if track goes away and clay breaks up and gets a little dusty. When sugared the track can defiantly support mid motor, but if it goes away, which is a possibility during an enduro, as there will be no time for stoping and track maintenance!
Thanks for the look see Sir Dave - maybe one day I'll sneak a 201XMW and 503 past the wife!
