Tamiya 501X oOple Hub

The 501X is the machine to have if you're a Tamiya fanboy or just want a great 4WD racer. If you're not a world-level driver then chances are you had to buy your 501X and there is little backup or support locally - this page is designed to help people get the most from their 501X with or without the support of Tamiya.

I'll be looking after this page with help from Woody - so hopefully we can produce some interesting reading for 501X fans. There will be race reports, setups and other random articles to follow.
