Take the HPI Pro 3 as well. It blew. Again similar chassis layout.
There is to litlle chassis dynamics because too litlle weight can be worked with.
HPi and Losi, 2 huge manufacturers, especially at the time of the release of the Pro3 and the Jrxs. Somehow this type of design doesn't work out in the end.
We'll see what happens.

Elegant mechanics has taken a back seat to weight distribution in the TA-06.
If I had to guess what they are trying to do put as much weight as possible in the very center (lower moment of inertia) and bias the weight towards the rear.
I'm sure it's going to handle well, the question is will it handle better than the TA-05 ver.II?

If Tamiya have done their homework and it's been well tested (I see no reason why they would not test the chassis!) then I guess ugly and results can be used in the same sentance...
You cant re-invent the wheel, but I guess you can make it look different

I kinda like this design I just wish the way Tamiya made an M chassis RWD(M06 Pro) to compete along side the FWD(M03-05 Pro) they would've made a 1/10 RWD to put in a class with the FF03 
. Just my 2 cents. I guess I'll put a hold on my TA-05 v2r purchase to see it come out and see what is the pros and cons are....

I don't know... looks like a plastic TM E4 with inboard front suspension. Looks heavy too.

JRXS Type R = never got a chance. Losi gave up on on road, but that car was a stone killer. Multiple different drivers, on different types of tires (foam, rubber), and they were all fast with it. I am not talking about Losi sponsored drivers, either, just very good local drivers.

from the looks of it, it seems like it uses a gear tranny for the rear. I'm assuming it is the same one from the FF03. So a gear drive rear and two belt front... I wonder it there will be any lag between the front and rear output response.

Looks like there are 3 pegs on top of the front bulkhead to attach a shock tower.
