The Supershot seemed faster but the handling looked skittish. I guess it comes down to looks, where I think the Supershot wins, hands down. Thanks for posting
thanks mate for watching 😊👍 Yeah i don’t think the independent suspension offered a huge advantage. the only thing is you get bearings and a gt tuned motor included with the SH . which would give it sn advantage over a stock hotshot. i really should do a comparison video over winter 😊👍
The OG Hotshot is amazing when you consider its design is from 1985! I have always loved the looks of it definitely my favourite tamiya 4wd! Well love all the shots! Awesome series and all classics in there own right! Great vid Dom enjoyed that mate!
What a great head to head match! I’m definitely down for a rematch. The HotShots single jingle shock setup did surprisingly well. Tires on the Super Hotshot are wicked. 👍✌️
Awesome race off! They both looked fantastic out there Dom, this really looks like Hotshot territory! So so close, both buggies deserved the win! I'm really happy i got one now, can't wait to get running with it! Cheers! 😎🍻👌👍
tough question . the og has that unique suspension and is more iconic but you do get quite a bit of stuff with the super. the shocks, bearings, undertray and gt tuned motor 👍
I mean you can't get much closer than that! Greta runs out of both of them! I am giving the win to the Hotshot, since the Super HS didn't quite win by a super amount LOL! Plus I like the looks of that one better LOL!
the OG is just ace . new motor and it’s on it 😊👍thanks addam . i might actually do a comparison as the super is a great value kit . fully ball raced , shocks, gt tuned motor and undertray included. 😊👍
I really thought the super-hotshot would have done better. It has full ball bearings, 4 wheel independent suspension and a GT tuned motor over the Hotshot, It was a close race. Never underestimate the underdog.
thanks buddy 😊👍 bare in mind i upgraded the OGwith a gt tuned as well and it’s also fully ball raced . however in terms of kit value i think the super is slightly better . thanks for watching mate 😊👍
What?..... You mean to say that the gold wheels on the super don't actually make that much difference?!! 😂 Boy that was extremely close mate, both buggies looked right at home on this terrain. 'Not a golf bunker' lol..... My other hobby is golf, and I always end up in the bunkers! One of that size would certainly give me nightmares out on the course! ⛳ Great match fella! 👍 👍 👍
i know! i was shocked myself mate ! thry are gold!!!! 😂 honestly i’m struggling to think of new course names which don’t involve sand this sand grass …. but i’ve got some silly ideas to fix it 😂👍
bottom line is this is 1985. Why trade memories? My 959 would MURDER both, but I don't care. It was a Super Shot, not a super hot shot. I have both, with every other Tamiya build that built on the Hot Shot class. Just wish there was data back then on head-to-head racing, which there is not, and THAT is what bums me out. Nothing beat a Techni-Gold...Hands down, and us "OLD TIMERS" know that...
Now that’s what you call “splitting hairs!” Wow! Guess that how it earned the title “Super, ” by 1/10 of a second!😂🦸♂️ Great video and games my friend!
What a great race and so close. You can really see that great's hard to improve. My guess is on the 4 shock setup and the big skid plate on the Super.
thanks buddy. the OG was winning to! but it did get a gt tuned to hop it up😊👍
I love these matches.
thanks for watching them , much appreciated 😊👍
Holy smokes, that was close!😮
Props to the OG!👏
Great work Dom!👍😊
thanks jeremy . the og still on it 🤜👍

they are my favourites to . glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching 😊👍
That was really close Dom!!! Looked like the Hotshot was easier to drive to me but somehow you stringed a flyer with the Super! Great content buddy 🙌🏻
thanks buddy. yeah i think it is tbh . unless it’s because i’m just use to it. thanks for watching 😊👍
What a great head to head match! I’m definitely down for a rematch. The HotShots single jingle shock setup did surprisingly well. Tires on the Super Hotshot are wicked. 👍✌️
thanks for watching mate . yes i’ll rematch them in the summer when the terrain gets super dusty 👍
Awesome race off! They both looked fantastic out there Dom, this really looks like Hotshot territory! So so close, both buggies deserved the win! I'm really happy i got one now, can't wait to get running with it! Cheers! 😎🍻👌👍
thanks mate . i think you will like it😊👍
That was super close, so the amount of shocks did not really make a difference.
not much difference at all . infact i felt the og handled a little easier … but then i have driven it so much so could just be experience 🤔👍
Oh cool! I thought the super Hotshot would win
thanks bud. 😊👍👍👍
Yeah super close race. Which one did you find handled better?
thanks buddy. the og i felt was a bit more easier but very little in it 😊👍
What a match-up! I have a guy next to me trying decide with one to buy this morning. Perfect timing.
tough question . the og has that unique suspension and is more iconic but you do get quite a bit of stuff with the super. the shocks, bearings, undertray and gt tuned motor 👍
@rc-dom-uk I'm pushing the OG. Nothing else like it and it's the original TAMIYA 4WD buggy.
@@rc-dom-uk I'm also trying to get him to break away from traxxas only.

That makes more sense. NICE job
Awesome video! Which one would win the fastest to fix something inside the sealed chassis or gearbox? 😄
thanks buddy. oh man … i never want to go there😂😂😂👍
Nice driving skill. Very consistent laps going down there.
thanks mate . and thanks for watching 😊👍
Wow great video very close matched vehicles
thanks for watching mate 😊👍
Great video, love the hotshot cars. Nothing between them really but were the small differences down to the tyres or the driver?
definitely the driver 😂👍
What?..... You mean to say that the gold wheels on the super don't actually make that much difference?!! 😂

So close 😮 Nice comparison 👍🤝
thanks for watching buddy 😊👍
I have both hotshot and superhotshot all stock setup
The lay down shocks are not that effective, but they are cool
yeah they are an unusual design . thanks for watching 😊👍
Is it my imagination or the two-wheel drives being faster over the same course?
not sure mate but there’s only one way to find out . another H2H🤜👍😂
@@rc-dom-uk 2 wd against 4wd.
I wanna see hotshot vs hotshot 2 vs superhotshot
it would be great and maybe one day when funds allow 😂😊👍
FIRST!
indeed👍😂👍
Oh Bollox!!! 😅🤣👌👍
@@MarkBryanRC ha!!!
Ferrari!!!!!!!!!!!! Yessssss!!!!!!!!
sausage 🤜
inexperienced driver with both...simple as that
neither cars are original

must be the gold wheels 😂👍thanks my friend 😊👍
