Another saga…. The Tamiya TA05 platform is such a great car. Then came the VDF… The OG blue one. I love my blue VDF, so I had to get this one when it came out. I have been sitting on a unopened box since the beginning of 2011. The gold bulk heads were finally released in late June, but I’m still hoping the release a gold colored front one way… Wishful thinking, but that what people said about gold bulkheads. I took my time sourcing some parts before the build. Set it up to be born as a Countersteer (CS) car!

The Build:
The box and Hop Up parts!

The nice colored coded parts bags! Gotta love Tamiya.
