prussian.guard Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 (edited) Tamia are a well known brand to Joe blogs.if you mentioned losi or ho bao to them they wouldn't know what your talking about.modelzone as far as I'm aware don't stock proper nitro or petrol models so unless your into the hobby daddy is going to pop down modelzone and buy his son a tamiya Edited January 5, 2014 by prussian.guard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokein Joe Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Don't knock Tamiya. They are responsible for getting a lot of people into the hobby with affordable easy to build kits. If it wasn't for them the numbers participating would be a lot less and many of the small scale specialist outfits probably wouldn't exist.

gravetxt-1 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 @ big gaz and Noj thanks guys. The wheelbase is 12 and a half inches as opposed to the standard 10 and a half. For anyone interested I have an in depth build thread on clodtalk.com its in the "Clodbuster and all other motor on axle trucks" forum. Entitled " ? inch wheelbase BULLHEAD build aka Valhalla". Not figured out how to do links yet hopefully you can find it lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
