Yokomo 4wd buggy

[Tom F]

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but is there any kind of rumour backing up this idea of a TRF buggy?

As for the Dark Impact - i'm really tempted - but i just hope Tamiya bring out some graphite swag etc for it...

I was going to buy one and put the 5300/2S Lipo in it, but if there is a chance of a TRF offerring then i might wait for that instead

The design of it looks a bit funny though - i'm not a big fan of the enourmously long steering linkage on the DF03, but hmm - should be an interesting summer with brushless really starting to take off

There's a UK company making carbon stuff for the DF03 already,they've been racing it,towers and some suspension tweeks so far but there talking of a chassis too.Saw it on ebay,search ' tamiya dark impact' on ebay.co.uk.It basically needs cvds some better shocks and for tamiya to release the slipper,then i could see it being competative for very little money.

You'd be waiting a year atleast for a TRF version i would have thought,maybe forever,i'd just get one,very cheap from japan on ebay,and make a few changes as they become available.

Here's a link to those towers;http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tamiya-Dark-Im...QQcmdZViewItem
