The only one I have is the F-150 race truck, absolutely love the thing. I might get a TXT-1 soon.

Nice job on the F-150! Is that an FG behind it?

Ya, TXT is really nice. I'm have a great time with my Brushless Savage I just might get a TXT next year. They are huge in person.

Figured I'd post some pics of my new Brat. I'm new to RC, hence the entry-level Tower stuff. first heard about the Brat several years ago when eBay searches for parts for my 1:1 subarus would occasionally snag listings for the Tamiya. i'd been toying with the idea of getting into RC for years, and when Tamiya rereleased the Brat i knew there was only one thing i could do...

need to work on a better paint job and add the decals, but I'll do that when I'm not running into walls at top speed. [sm=lol.gif]

While I think it is great to have a thread where you can post Tamiya stuff without getting deleted, I do think this thread does not fit in the Off Topic thread.. I remember RC related threads were deleted from the off-topics forum before.. because they are on-topics.. LOL.. so maybe being in the off-road or on-road forum will be more appropriate..

But I still think pics and whatnot should go into each model's specific thread.. but then, if they keep on getting deleted, maybe this is the only way to go..

Thought I'd add a couple of my Tamiya pics for others to see (as seen in the Lounge 2 already). My (spoiler-less..for now) TA05-R:
