I also think that drifting is more of a 4wd thing.
Anyway, it sounds like great fun and I know I'll not be able to resist trying to campaign one in our mini class. I think this opens the door for Tamiya to make several new bodies of RWD cars. Being an old guy, I have a hard time getting excited about FWD bodies like the Yaris and Civic. Give me a BMW 2002 or Shelby Daytona. Heck, this could be a whole new segment of VTA if it was done right. One can only hope.

I hope it's a square lipo compatible RWD car. I love my M04 but the battery limitations suck.

There is a company that makes a very beautiful BMW 2002 bodyshell. I am their distributor in Australia, so if you want I can sell you one, but beware, you might not want to run it after you build it.
PM me if interested.

I sold my m04 and picked up the Cup Racer and run my Alfa Guilia on it. When I saw Tamiya re-releasing RWD bodies on M05, thought M04 was history.
Guess Tamiya heard us complaining about how silly FWD chassis would be with these RWD bodies and decided to release an M06!
Hopefully it will be a tuneable double deck chassis, a simple layout like an F104, with a gear box and A arms, or something similar to cup racer ...instead of a continuation of M04/M05.
