Maxxum FF ?
I hope that box is only for illustration purposes.
I don't know much about the Maxxum FF. Found one on flebay that is FWD. Were they all like that?
FF = Front Forward
Motor in front, like on the Tamiya FF-01 chassis.
That's close.....
FF stands for
Front motor
Front wheel drive
It's a very Japanese naming style....

Ok guys, if its brushless I'm gonna go with the collective opinion.
This car isn't going to see a lot action. Maybe a few trips to the beach or a grass field. So,,...
Do I go 13.5 or 17.5?

Ah, just like they use the letter "W" to say "double" or "option"...
I read the Front Forward thing elsewhere (Tamiyaclub?)

Just need to paint and install the driver's head and detail his torso.
Also, I need to figure out some sort of wing decal.

Ha! Perfect for Halloween! The color is Tamiya red PS-2 and it's a damn good match.

Great work.

I don't get it...
All that nice dirt and they cover it up with roofing paper, or carpet, or whatever that is to run on it?

Well I don't know how dumb this will sound but being this is my first trailing arm car can anyone share how to setup this caster and bar stuff? The manual sort of falls short regarding this matter.
