i WISH i has a m01 tho. those cars are just plain fun and with proper tires there ready to race. if there anyone in los angeles or close we should meet up for a little tamiya stock race. i love running my mini around a home made tracks
the other tamiyas me and my brother have aren't race worthy.
TA03 is another kettle of fish, belts and all. That doesn't make it very suited to off road conditions. There is a Yokomo MR4TC rally car (which is mechanically an MR4TC with a completely enclosed transmission) which is extremly capable but very complex mechanically and a pain in the butt to service.
But about the M01 (my Alpine A110 came on that chassis), TECH racing made a 4WD conversion kit with an external belt for it in the past. I have seen it once, but never since then (about ten years ago).
How do I post larger picture files?
