There's some early pics here: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=53472
I couldn't find those on the linked website.

The preceding contained opinions, beliefs and thoughts that all may not agree with. No offense was intended at any point. Carry on.

Hello . I am getting ready to assemble a sand scorcher kit. Any comments on is it worth installing the ball diff upgrade #54897. Thanks.

Last post

as above , it works on hard surfaces but they tend to come loose as the adjustment is not on a nylock nut as usual but has a screw with dry locktight , you need additional locktight on the screw or it works loose and you loose drive .

The first hobby grade RC I ever saw in my life, was when I was riding the city bus at 12 years old. There was an older kid maybe 14-15, sitting in the back of the bus, with the Tamiya Sand Scorcher box in his lap. All I could see was the side of the...

The paint looks to have settled, or become a bit smoother today, now that it's dry.

The weather is nearly ideal right now to paint the blue layer, but I need to make sure to let the white dry properly.

Really happy with what I have so far now,...

Hi all :)

Although my heart starts pounding more & more for the RC10, I thought I could post this Sand Scorcher.
It has a MB-body and the chassiparts have been beadblasted. I painted it with 2 different grey (German Grey and Hazel Grey) since I...

That looks nice and clean. The grey color Reminds me of someone who has done a bunch of body work to his bug to get it ready for paint but still needs to drive it to work. Did you make the front bumper?

The Tamiyaclub Community Scorcher wasn't just a body. Many, many TC members donated parts to the car to build the chassis and suspension, then Pleiku68 plated the metal parts in rhodium and gold. The project took 4 years from the first parts being...

Is the motor a 1 off or is someone producing that?

It was a lucky eBay find. From what I gather the guy who pit it together made a few of them and sold them off quite a number of years ago, and this was the last one he had held on to.... and then...

Just wondering what the pros cons are, differences between the original and re release?

I really want one but need to know about what I should look for in a used one.
