Default Tamiya Team Drivers

Does anyone know if there will be any Tamiya team drivers to campaign the TRF501X, or is it in the hands of priviate owners only in the UK?????

On the same point who runs the Tamiya TC team drivers here in the UK?????

Judging by the amount I have spent on Tamiya kits in the past years I should have an honory position as a team driver

Have you contacted the Hobby Co about any vacancies for team drivers?

Funny thing...

I e-mailed the CEO of Tamiya last week offering to put together a Tamiya works team and finance it in the UK. The main driving force for me is getting these great cars on the tracks, with a structured team that can do R&D work on UK tracks and push the car forward. I grew up racing Tamiya cars fruitlessly against Cat's in the 80's put I always stuck with the brand.

Lets see what they say...

Anyone interested in the venture should PM me for further details.

Colin
