The first in a long line of the TA-01 chassis. Well, It actualy started in the Mantaray as it shares exactly the same front/rear gearboxs & main chassis, Just different coloured plastics (Gearboxs red & chassis grey, All black on the Mantray). The susp arms were all shortened & road wheels/tryes added.
Quick'ish in standard form with the 540 motor, As weight is pretty good. Very strong chassis for track abuse. Loads of hop-ups were available from Tamiya, Like carbon fibre chassis & alloy dampers. You wouldn't recognise a fully hoped-up car.
The body is also nice. Another great detailed lexan shell from those guys in Japan. They just don't stay that way long do they?
Prices are very cheap for used ones. Hop-ups & new body sets go for the most money.
