  1. Tamiya M03 race car, I have built it to my local club spec but I'm yet to run it having only just finished it. The shell isn't Tamiya but suits the M03 chassis well. The decals were meant for something completely different but they suit the RS1 shell perfectly! The rear spoiler is from the Alfa 155 touring car but again looks just right on the little Audi. And the inspiration for the shell
  2. I started sorting my spares out today and came across a ta-02 chassis that I'm yet to use. After swapping the rear arms round I did this!
  3. I started restoring this classic but have changed my mind and would like to sell it on to fund my current TL-01LA touring car. This has brand new tyres, brand new bearings all round, brand new rear axle gaitor and the hop up aluminium front uprights. The shell is original monster beetle. This is not new and has seen some action. It has had a repair although its very well done. The nose cone is new and from a sand scorcher. It comes with new light buckets and new indicators. There are no light lenses. The chassis has been painted metallic black and looks fantastic! The rear shock mounts would need replacing, they are original and have cracked. Also, the drivers side rear body mount is not original, I mocked it up quickly for the pictures. Also included are a brand new 540 motor, a brand new msc should you wish to install period electronics and everything else in the pictures. I have never driven it but it will be a fantastic car for somebody to finish off. I'm looking for
  4. It is absolutely brilliant! I've put many miles on this thing and until yesterday all was fine. I took it for a bash at my local park, it handled jump after jump with no dramas until I hit a tree at quite some speed and snapped a rear upright. Surprisingly little damage given the speed I was doing at the time! Only thing I'd suggest is upgrading the standard shocks as they are a bit spongey. I used Absima on mine as they don't break the bank but have worked great on my fleet of Tamiya's. Go buy one matey
  5. It's much better with the uprated shocks, the standard ones were a bit naff. Goes well though! I think I might get some better tyres but otherwise I'll leave it as it is.
  6. Took my Helion out for a quick blast today. Also has aluminium shocks fitted and light bar that I'm yet to wire up.
  7. Hello chaps, I bought myself a Helion Volition after the review in this months RRCI magazine and I'd like to improve it a bit if I can. The standard shocks are not the best so any pointers as to what I can use to replace them would be great. Has anybody on the forum modified anything else on one of these? Any hints and tips will be greatly appreciated.
  8. Finished my Tamiya TL-01. Sadly the previous owner of the body shell didn't apply the decals very well so I'm on the lookout for a new set.
  9. Those Escudo shells are stunning! I did see one for sale a while back, wish I had bought it.
  10. I'm just getting into the drift scene and after a few weeks of making do with drift tyres on my son's touring car I thought I'd buy something a little better. The shell and wheels will be going soon to be replaced with something a bit less drifty looking!
  11. Hey mate, really want the madbull parts but my budget this week wont stretch to all of it, would you do the pink wheels on their own?
