Default New Tamiya Rally Car
im not sure if you guys have seen this or not, new Tamiya rally car.

link - http://www.tamiyagekken.nl/?p=1591#more-1591

and just in case you dont speak dutch, the text on that page says;

As we last week already could report gets the Tamiya rally-story shortly a new chapter. Mid next month namely the new DF-03RA draft will be presented at the large public. As the type-indication does suspect is this draft based on the famous and tested DF-03 buggy-chassis that we of the Dark Impact and building peer know. Today dove there all a photograph on of this new rallywagen, on which clear the rally-adaptations are to recognize:

This new development will the Tamiya rally-story, that it until now closed had to do with antiquated BARRELS variants and the TB01, an enormous angriest give. Temporarily the rally-lovers can again the borders to hartelust between on and evenly-road unsafely make.

The tamiya rally escorts are still my favourite, look forward to hearing what this chassis is like.

I like the concept, nice off-road basher in a scale format with a sealed drivetrain. But I kind of wish they made it with the TB03 or DB01 chassis, better plastics and all.

As much as how the DF03 transmission reminds me of the mantaray, this reminds me of when they used the chassis to make the Celica GTfour, they should have gone full retro and made the gear cases red

I've seen 3s mamba max setups of the df03 on Youtube...how long it lasts is another question. But it would be doing a scale 700 mph or so, lol

They should make a DF-03E with better plastics like what they did with the TT-01. Heheh.
