Just bought a Tamiya Mad Bluster last weekend, it's basically a Subaru Brat bodied Tamiya RC monster truck. It's perfect for my terrain which is mainly grass and smaller wheeled RC's would normally struggle.

I've got a thread in Scale Models section http://www.pistonheads.com/xforums/topic.asp?h=0&a... but thought some of you might appreciate this. I haven't gotten around to spraying the Brat shell yet so I used my old Impreza WRC 97 McRae 555 shell.

Oh, should add it's been modded in true Subaru tradition, its now using HPI Flux Brushless motor, HPI fan cooled mappable ESC, Li-po 7.4v power and I've modified the rear suspension to cope with the increased power, as you can see, it likes to pop power wheelies!!
