not really what i expected that pic looks a bit iffy if you ask me hehe, it could be a tub but im not sure it could be a Poo picture. Who knows we'll just have to wait and see.. i wonder what Surikarn will be running at the pre-worlds in ... France i think?

My drivetrain is smooth, thank you. I run my car at SoCal and there are a few EVO3s there but I don't know anyone who sand or tape their gearboxes.

new wishbones!
By the looks of those pics, the wishbones seem slightly different to the current tamiya ones: notably the 3 shock mounting holes on the front.

Alright, here it is in Jpg. Just printscreen and save it in JPEG format.

looking at the pic, I'm thankful I skipped on the Evo3 now I'm wondering if I should wait for the EVO5 instead..

there were plastic TGR housings for the gears.
The ones in the picture suggest the TBe3's plastic housing
has been replicated as a skeletal design; possibly drop-in
interchangeable with the old style - I'm hoping.
(so that'll make it an option for TB02 too... "marketing thinking")

Ahh, but I'll settle for being curator of Tamiya History Museum.
Where do I send my CV to??

Pfft...why wait? If they come out with ANOTHER Evo your'e gonna wait 3 months after it comes out for the announcement of the next Evo and wait another year til it comes out....then wait for the announcement of the next Evo. My dad proved to me that a slightly "older" Tamiya car (ie: 414 MII) can still outhandle 9/10 of the cars out there even if its not Tamiyas newest car
Just hang with the latest tech you can afford until you have the cash and/or need newer tech.

They look like new cvd's/universals/driveshafts
Bulkhead looks plastic with aluminium brace from lower deck to shock tower and possibly top deck mound. But most of the diif housing still looks plastic.
