Notice that it uses mid length LWT suspension arms for more agressive handling. Sounds interesting, unlike tamiya to update the arms this fast. Looks like the Tamiya boys have been very busy indeed, surprising not to see spy pics, like we have seen of the prototype parts on the 415 cars.

"Super Low Friction dampers" - what?

Sounds like they are chucking the crap shocks off the standard Minis and TT01s on it

Interesting to see what they look like, and how hard it is to modify for the 415. I'm surprised Tamiya are still doing a shaft car considering the success they have had with the belt driven 41x cars.

I knew about this car last week, but i was told not to say anything til this week. Was release at the weekend in Paris along with the Lexus SC430 shell on the TA05, the Tam Tech Hornet, and the re-issue Bruiser.
