Default Tamiya Fast Attack Vehicle re-released!

Probably old news for some of you vintage pros... but I first saw it on rc-mushroom yesterday, cool to have it back in business!

Yeah this is great - hopefully they will bring out the wildone next? Tempted by one of these though. So many nice tamiya re-releases and not enough cash though!

129 USD from HK is a real bargain!!!

Yeah, I really think the Wild One will be re-released as well then!

Any other recent re-releases (after the Avante)?

Jimmy: STORAGE is an even bigger problem!!! I've had to "flat pack" all the original boxes. The cars themselves are packed in compact cardboarb boxes, and are stored from floor to ceiling... mad... what I'd really like to see is some pills to make this madness stop!!!

My dream is that maybe when I'm old & gray I will have an enormous hobby room with shelves/cabinets where it can all be displayed...

I'm going to up the motor and maybe the speedo. Really not wanting to blow the gearbox but want some more speed. Any recommendations for what to go for?

Still some work to do. Need to touch up some paint work and finish other parts. Also want to upgrade front dampers, have them but finding it hard to source Wild one mounts and trailing arm brackets.
