| description | This is my second hotshot and must say i love this car so much,its got such a mean off road racer look to it,its just hardcore!!Ive said this before but these buggys look sooo much better in the flesh than in pictures.so to anyone who is thinking of getting one,do so you will not be disappointed!! this is a re-re and have had it for a while but been waiting a long time for those beautiful gold wheels to turn up on the bay for a sane price!! now with the re-re of the supershot i would of thought soon to be widely available!this one has full ball bearings,25turn GT tuned motor. As with the first one, built this with the help of tamiya 101.com hotshot build guide by moosey, which is fantastic with its visual guide for any tips or doubts you my have. still not sure to white letter the tires,i do love the look big time!!but i am thinking about keeping my cars as close to the images that i saw as a kid in the superb 1980s tamiya R/C guide books which i looked through time and time again. All comments welcome,thanks for looking.

Very nice! I just got one too, but it needs a ton of parts!
Nice looking Hotshot, great work.
thanks guys.
A 4x4 icon!! Nice job it looks real nice!!
The best buggy Tamiya ever made imo. I have quite a few of these now myself
@hot rod,thanks yes originally got this to be my runner! but not now!! looking for another! has to be a used one!! just love them in this mint finish condition on my shelf!!!!!@sunnyjai,cheers yes they showed them on the box art!!
very nice and always good to have 2 of the same just in case the urge to run grabs hold. I now have 3 of these... one re-re , one original runner and a new built original with the same re-re gold wheels you have and it makes these cars stunning. Nice work buddy regards hot rod
Very nice! This is the very car that my uncle had that started the Tamiya craze for the rest of us in my family. And Tamiya should have included the gold wheels from start as standard fare!
