Re: the sport tuned motor, I have the RZ motor ( I believe this is the higher revving motor compared to the other which low RPM but higher torque) for my Dark Impact build. Would the standard set-up take the extra power of the RZ or should i go for the RT motor instead? I have a feeling it might not be that simple, but I thought I'd ask... It was going to be candy apple red, and I remember me and my dad went to this proper bikers custom paint shop to get the paint. It needed a gold base coat which was fine but the flake in the red was so big it wouldn't go through dads spray gun - so it ended up white and red! The Tamiya Sand Scorcher from our great range of radio controlled buggies, was reintroduced to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of the original Sand Scorcher with an improved re-release of the radio control car model. This is one of a great range of rc cars that are available both online and in store. This 2010 version Sand Scorcher has been carefully updated while maintaining the original features of the chassis such as the unique front double trailing arms and rear torsion suspension. R/C fans hearts will definitely race when they see the classic VW Beetle shape and relive the dynamic performance of this machine.

The swing axle rear suspension has the unique ribbed rear tires which ensure dynamic driving on sandy surfaces. The Tamiya Sand Scorcher is to be reintroduced to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of the original Sand Scorcher with an improved re-release of the radio control car model.

Still a couple of bits to do - I need to make a sunroof, and will fit the exhaust from the rere bodyshell I have. wheel independent suspension features front double trailing arm and rear swing axle setups, die-cast suspension arms, and oil dampers. Cleaned the shell, touched in some of the paint, lacquered, wet sanded and polished before waxing. I wanted to keep the "patina" - warts and all! The symbolic rear exhaust pipe is reproduced with a separate part which greatly enhances scale realism.
