it better be a real tamiya 2wd.

or that pic could have been a b4 with modded front shock tower and rear trf shocks.

Its fully badged up as a Tamiya, I doubt Tamiya's no1 TRF guy would race a B4 and badge it as a tamiya. ALthough I would imagine there will be a fair amount of similarities.. Hopefully it will have some Tamiya OTT stuff going on though

Think someone asked for action shots of the car. Is it not a Tamiya in the front taking the lead. Sure looks like it when comparing the previous pics with it.

Apparantly it's not a rumor anymore.
Looks like a TRF 2wd will finally hit the market.
The only problem is no release date.

Please Mr Lee! Could you confirm this at least? Is the motor more centred? To the right I mean seen from behind. 50/50 weight left to right.

Looks like it from two of the pics

Looks like it to me, judging by the space between rear tyre and end of the motor I'd say it's designed around a brushless motor.
