I got a Stella one too, arrived yesterday. I ordered it, it went out of stock, and then I think they added another one to stock as it was available again!

Maybe it was to stop people buying lots at that low price...

Kifo you seem keener than a child leading up to Christmas day over your 511! Can see why after looking at Lees. Missed you and Jimmy yesterday.

wow dudes, thanks for all the feedback, an NIB original 501 came up for sale cheap, so i snapped it up, actually works out better for me than the wce cos it doesnt have all the aluminium bits etc, i guess down the track we'll see if theres a new tamiya or if not i can move to a 511 in a year or so. i really like this tamiya crew here on oople, a lot of helpful and knowledgable people. Fredrik i will take u up on ur offer of the covers. i'll probably be ok without the lipo cradles, the lipos i use have the nubs on the base to locate in the nimh slots, will send u a pm, thanks for helping out the tamiya runners

I took the rear aluminum hub carrier off and put on a plastic one.
The front aluminum hub carrier is fine because you have extra tuning holes.
The one thing that's different from the regular 501 and the wce is the pulleys, and the body, and the included swaybars.
I wrote tamiya on facebook about the new car coming out, and nothing was said. So I dont know about the new car.
I dont think the 511 was discontinued I just think tamiya is out of stock.

yeah ur right, the orignal 501 has the 35 an 36 pulleys, thats fine, my plan is to run the 18 tooth contre pulleys off my db01r and the longer belts out of it too and 36 tooth pulleys front and rear
