I still love my grasshopper I bought in 89'. It started me out . Now I've got to share the hobby with my sons. Almost as good as fishing and cliff jumping 😂

I can’t wait to see it built. I’ve never built a Tamiya personally but man it’s been calling me lately. Thanks for the inspiration to build one.

There’s just something about the monster beetle that’s so damn cool 😎 I’ve a little brushless system in mine with the rear diff shimmed and it’s been running at 23mph with no issues… any faster is unstable and things break
