    One of the best looking racing cars ever made, and Tamiiya have done a fantastic job of recreating it as usual!!

    • @Competitionx

      Agreed. It did take almost 4 hours to complete the body (including paint), but the finished product really is stellar!

    1980 chassis with epic new body about time they did the 956 , a newman sticker set will be next

      Ya, chassis is vintage for sure - new body set looks killer though. Miss the Rothman's livery though.

    I did not know that this came already. I think you are right. Building the car will be fast, but painting the body will take days plus adding the decals. Thoughts?

    • @Competitionx
      @Competitionx  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's not released yet - soon. And yes, 2 hours for the chassis, 7 days for the body set. BUT, Tamiya's bodies are the best in the business so it's well worth it!

      For a shelf queen, you can't get anything better looking. It really is a beautiful car. If you're going to drive it, be careful. It's a limited edition and parts may be an issue later down the line.

      A standard shotgun LiPo will fit, like this one: alnk.to/28SiBUm. This is what we're using in ours.

    • @Competitionx
      @Competitionx  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Doing a little research, it appears something like the McAllister NASCAR Stock Car might fit: mcallisterracing.com/nascar-stock-car-224/. They have a few other versions that might as well, but you'd have to verify that first.

      You can see all the spare parts here, including the H-Parts www.tamiyausa.com/parts/36861 It shows a price of $0, but maybe hit up Tamiya Customer Support and see if you can get one from them.

    A shame it didn't come with the original livery.....It looks a bit weird just saying "Racing". I realize Rothmans it's not as PC as it once was...but it's a historic recognizable livery.... and what they have released withn means many will need to search out 3rd party stickers at additional expense.

    • @Competitionx
      @Competitionx  หลายเดือนก่อน

      We had a buddy cut out some 'OG'-style stickers on his Cricut - and it looks awesome! But yes, the original livery would have been much better.

      Kind of hard to compare the two - one is a fully-independent, 4WD 'touring car', the other is a 2WD pan car. Only the bodies make them similar.
