Default Tamiya Fleet for 2011

Right, I thought I would go for one constant colour scheme this year which is easy to know up by myself. I am pretty happy with how they have come out.

Tamiya TRF801X
Ran this all last year, so have built up a new one with all the lightweight parts. I have been able to lose about 100g and it now looks better which is always a plus It is all ready for the MORC indoor race in Switzerland in 2 weeks.

JConcepts Punisher



Stock Shell


Practice Shell


Tamiya TRF801XT
JConcepts Punisher


Tamiya TA05



Tamiya DB01


Thanks for looking
Scott

It is a torsion front end. I bought it second hand with it because it looked funky and it was just something to have a play with.
I uses where you put the screw on the top plate to adjust the stiffness, which makes it easy to change the setup and gets rid of the need for springs on the front end. I haven't really got to grips with it yet, but will have a play to get it how I want. But it looks good
