F103 foams?
For those of you guys who have the F103 chassis, where are you getting your foams tires from? I just finished my F103 but it came with some rubber tires and to be honest they handle like crap. Thanks

RE: F103 foams?
You can get them from any hobby shop that sells Tamiya stuff. Tower hobbies also has them. The rims are the same diameter as a 1/12th car and we use 1/12th foam on them but you must use rears on the front also for the height. Check with www.d-drivesportsenglish.com for all the good stuff like different compounds and trick parts you cannot get here.

Thanks guys, i never thought there would be this much stuff for them out there. I was able to pick my F103RS kit up for $60 at my hobby shop cause it had been sitting on the shelf for like a year. Man this car is fun to drive with crappy tires, can't wait for my foams now.

Glad to help. Start spreading the word about the Alpha F1 race in April and the 3rd annual F1 Builders Cup this Summer. The Alpha race is in S. IL and the F1 Cup looks like N. GA this year. Time to make some laps!

The F103RS hasn't been made in some time so more than likely its been sitting on that shelve for many years. Great find!
