trf 2wd rumor
i heard some rumors about a trf 2wd coming out end of may!!
can anyone confirm or denied plz thanks pete68 |
I hope it's true. Gosh Id buy one in a heatbeat.:p
I'll wait and see if one shows up on thier website by then. If not I'll have to get a B4 or something. |
Same rumor for over 5 years now. Highly doubtful...
|
Take the front diff out of a 501x and put some skinny tires on the front :)
|
I donīt know why they havenīt released a 2WD TRF yet. It seems many people ou there waited for it for years. It could be a good business for Tamiya and if they car wins a few races it would be a good advert fro them. I definitly would buy one...or two :D
|
Ditto, I'd buy one. :thumbsup:
I think its inevitable at some point. It makes sense that when they got back into competition 4wd that they concentrated on 4wd first for a TRF buggy, as Tamiya have always favoured a slightly over engineered approach to their cars. But back in the day remember there was always the TRF202x which basically became a Dynastorm :) |

It seems every year this comes up on a message board (sorry Pete). Tamiya/TRF missed the boat when Kyosho came back with a 2WD contender (rb5). Seriously, how hard is it to make a efficient 2WD tranny :confused:??? Just copy the B4, would not be the first time Tamiya has copied another company..
Tamiya will stick to what they do best recently - keep releasing the re-res, sell TRF kits with minuscule changes and keep creating many variations of the TB03 and TA05 chassis' to pump out new kits :yawn:.. I will not hold my breath :(..... |

Chassis/weight dist., driveshafts, hub carriers, spindles, suspension mounts, diff and pulley sizes, belts, motor mount system, bulkheads, top decks, camber link mount system, suspension arms. That's really quite a lot!! The TC's are the same, they actually tweak lots of little bits! |
Yes, the concept works and there is not much the companies can do to make just their car unique in design. The Rb5 and B4 are very similar but still different in characteristics on the track. Think another 2wd from any company will look like those available already unless the go for a mid motor kit which I hardly believe they will.
I don't care if it is a copy of another car. Or is it is really fare to call a rb5 for a copy? I don't think so. A bike will always look like a bike have done for the past 50 years or so. If it is not broke... Think the quality speak for it self. Would love some blue aluminium on there though:wub |
