Is it possibly the biggest m chassis flop ever? We didn't even bother to do Part 2 of our review on the car because Tim lost the will to live after Part 1.

How could Tamiya have got it SO wrong?.............
As you already know, 4wd minis were never very popular and Tamiya came late to the party. If people wanted a proper shrunken tamiya that used a 540 motor and full sized LiPo they would have already bought a Fujin. It's basically is a small 416we and it costs less too. The best value 4wd mini right now is the Atomic which is a shrunken XRay for 1/2 the cost of that Tamiya M Four.

Too bad Tim is so disappointed by the car. I was looking forward to part 2 of the review just to see what you guys found out about the car. Oh well.
