Thought I'd post up my mini bits of fun.
Always had a place for these since my first Tamiya QD Impreza, like the one below, which I had many moons ago:
After that I fancied a dig into the nitro world and ended up buying a HPI RS4 3 18SS with a Beetle shell, like the one below:
Then swing by 15+ years later I get back into it.
In my collection now, I have:
Tamiya TT-02 Audi V8 which was a recent purchase. Painted pearlescent white. Added a couple of hop ups including the aluminium prop shaft, full metal bearing kit, tyre foams and a 68t high speed gear set.
HPI RS4 3 Evo+ Mustang which was bought about 18 months ago. I changed the bodyshell to a Silvia, Porsche and R32 Skyline. Have various sets of wheels for it and just recently been setup and tuned. Installed a roto-start to make starting it easier.
HPI RS4 Sport 3 Flux which is another recent purchase. Just love the look of it and it's very quick. Added a few carbon bits to it and upgraded to Yeah Racing steering components. Just waiting on the high gear set to come back into stock and it should hopefully hit 70/80mph. However, I've shredded the 66t spur so waiting on a replacement to come through so I can go back to tearing up the streets.
All 3 in a family pic:
And as a bonus, I won an online raffle and received the Tamiya Ford Escort Mk2 Rally. However, as I'm more for on road, I sold it and it funded some upgrades.
Hopefully will get some running vids of them all.
