TamTech GT-01 - 1:10M rally conversion

[Honza D]

I'm rally racer and like bodies like Renault 5 turbo, Porsche 911 RSR, Alpine A110 or Lancia Stratos.. But all these cars are made for M-Chassis, that mean 210mm wheelbase and 160-170mm wide, so I can't use my RWD rally car..

But luckily I found modified GT-01 for about 10$, so i bought it and start modifying it to M-chassis



I thougth, that Tamtech fits some of my 400-size motor from old toys.. It didn't, until I made some modifications


I don't have any 1/12 electronics, so i fitted electronics from 1/10 car and modified wheelbase to 210mm. After that, i made 12mm hexes from original 10mm. This made from GT-01 something like future M-08 (new minis wil have 370 motors, like Tamiya TA05 M-four)




Now I need some softer springs for CVA shocks and of course M-body and M-wheels with rallyblocks
