-->> Tamiya's future releases <<--

[Thompson Smith <thompers@together.net>]

qlisters,

I made a suggestion to Tamiya Japan engineers early this summer and
guess what? They followed through! Looks as if they are planning to
release an Audi R8R Roadster 1/10 scale R/C car!  Awesome. I hedge my
bets that it will be based on the current F103 chassis. If it's anything
as good as the Tamiya Porsche 911GT1 LM and the Totota GT-One, we will
have a winner. I'm surprised that they didn't make the coupe version as
this would be easier to make in Lexan. Open top spyders are fine with
me! I'll have photos and or updates on my site as soon as they become available.
