In this video, I celebrate 45 years of Tamiya 2-wheel drive off-road racing buggy evolution with a double kit build. First we have the Buggy Champ, which is a close descendant of the original 1979 Rough Rider. The chassis includes many die-cast metal components giving a feel of quality and robustness. After the step-by-step kit build of this Tamiya icon, we move onto the 2024 BBX. How has Tamiya's latest buggy evolved? Let's take a detailed look with a second kit build and then conduct a side-by-side comparison.
