Audi Pikes Peak
Just bought this from Neo (cheers again Sean!) and it looks great! The TA02 was my first ever Tamiya all those years ago so I saw this and wanted it ;-)
Almost mint condition with alot of newish looking parts and a very smart home-made carbon fibre chassis. It must have been done by a proffesional because the results are stunning. Just missing the centre drive shaft (on the way soon I hope ;-))
Not sure what version this little TA02 started life as (no box or manual) so if anyone knows who built this please let me know I would be very grateful.
And as for the body it's a Carson version of my favourite rally car of all time, the Audi S1 Pikes Peak. The pictures say it all really... n(and as for the HUGE shaddows, I live so far north that's as high as the sun gets at 12.00 this time of year!)

You have to race it at the club !!
I raced my TA-02 on the wood before I left ( with the Escort Cossie body) Got TQ and upset one or two people !!
Love that S1 body !

Oh I dunno about that Stu, the standard of racing has come on alot since you left. The standads at Falkirk must be the best in Scotland and by far the best now out of all the club's I've raced at. This one's just for a bit of fun me thinks...

Looking great, fine job!
I sold this to Neo earlier this year. The chassis came to me from an Austrian member of TC. Glad to see Neo didn't destroy the S1. Lovely, Neil.
Verging on rediculously cool! almost looks real in top pic

YES THAT IS THE POWER. I THINK YOU WONT MOVE WHEN THIS APPERAS IN YOUR BACKVIEW MIRROR, YOU WOULD DISAPPEAR great work, cause the stock chassis from CARSON was trash
