HKS Altezza R/C by Tamiya

Tamiya has a nice 1:10 R/C racer of the excellent HKS Altezza. This is worth looking at.

Rear (yeah, yeah, models have FAR better detail, but still):

Minus the skin:

Suspension and links up close:

Belt-driven all-wheel-drive; note the high usage of composite graphite:

Nice car though. :D I just can't afford them. :(

Used to race them, now don't find much appeal in just running them up and down the street!
If you want the most fun with them, race them, though it isn't cheap!
Some of our best memories are from racing at Stafford, eh Steve!!!:D

I used to race some R/Cs at a simple PLR in Rowland Heights, but with F1s, not the all-wheel-drivers. It wasn't terribly expensive (unless you want to win, haha).

I dont like the 4-wheel drives, they are too overrated compared to F1 and pan cars. They are so much faster, but they are harder to control for the most part. Also taimyia is the best for racing. Right now i think teh TC3 is the dominant force at the track in touring cars.

HUGE forum. I like tamiyas, but this latest 04 is just the same as every other car o the market. The ta03 was unique, but not the 04.

I would love to get into R/C but dont have the money to do it. That and I dont know where I would be able to race them.
