Default RE: Tamiya TA05R by C.A.R.

The car cost me £125 from the shop at which I work (support the British trade, see.)

My boss is sorta sponsoring me for the comp. so he's donating the Acoms Hayabusa radio gear.

We agreed that the spec. I wanted from the TA05R would cost a lot of money through the UK distributer, so my boss got hold of the parts from a contact out in Japan. All in all they still came to nearly £200. Because it's new the parts are really expensive.

Altogether that's a £325 (+ £90 electronics) car, with a £30 body and a £80 lighting kit.....[X(]
