TMS or Jim Davis Models Hotshot Chassis - Anyone have any drawings
Hi everyone,
So, I am trying to re-acquire all my old cars or cars I wanted but couldn't afford from when I raced in the 80's. In the collection already are a brand new Yokomo 870c an RC10 gold pan, a Sand Scorcher (re-re) and a Hotshot (re-re). Still to go are a PB Mini Mustang, Schumacher Cat XLS and an Ultima when I can find great examples... Back in the day I used to race the Hotshot with a Jim Davis Models GRP chassis, RC10 servo saver, RC10 shocks etc. The chassis was similar to the TMS one (but in my opinion it was a little more nicely made). I have recently bought a re-re Hotshot and would like to re-re build my 'old racer' with the GRP chassis... So, I haven't seen anyone on here or Tamiya Club talk about the Jim Davis Models chassis, but I seen various people on this forum with the TMS chassis and I was wondering whether anyone here could PM me with a scan of the 1:1 drawings of the TMS chassis which I believe came with it so that I can use the dimensions to make my own? Or, if anyone has one they want to sell then that could work as well. Hoping you can help. Mark |

There's a local guy in New Zealand asking similar questions at the moment here is his thread
http://www.rcracer.co.nz/Forum/viewt...?f=100&t=17636 On a different note Steve I've had a couple of reasonable orders of your bodies - cougar, cougar 2, bosscat and xls -turn up and I must say they are very nice repro's cheers Adrian 👍 |

This version of the Hotting up the Hotshot article might allow you to actually create some plans: -

Have you guys seen the work of this fellow member 'Dragontune'?
It should inspire you. http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=116332 The thread is little old, but it might be worth a try to send him a pm |

I had not, but very nice cars! Love the FF!
I decided to go a different route. The mag chassis was not lipo friendly, requires a metal pan, and didn't tie in the cage well. I remedied those and more...and made it very rigid in the process! |
