Tom’s Tamiya TT-01ED Drifter - Introduction I’ve always had a big thing for RC drifting. What I like about it is you don’t need a huge amount of space to practice your skills or have fun.  I’ve got a tarmac drive at my house, and if I More...

Matt's Schumacher CAT SX – April/May 2010 Update My last instalment saw me tempt fate about how I would be writing about the new version of the CAT SX called the SX2. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case and the magazine continues to wait for a More...

Joe’s HPI Blitz – April/May 2010 Update STOCK! = Boring – ok it may be perfect for the backyard basher but I have a huge competitive streak, it’s that large it has its own weather system - normally a stormy cloud if I don’t do well! So More...

Joe's Tamiya BMW 320i WTCC TT01E – January 2010 Update Not really much of a Staff Ride this one, more of a staff shelf queen! This was created by Joe as a present for his long suffering girlfriend Kerry who is a big BTCC fan, specifically of More...

Staff Rides - ON-ROAD ELECTRIC

Joe's Tamiya BMW 320i WTCC TT01E – January 2010 Update

MO3O9643

Not really much of a Staff Ride this one, more of a staff shelf queen! This was created by Joe as a present for his long suffering girlfriend Kerry who is a big BTCC fan, specifically of Colin Turkington. Using the Tamiya TT01E kit as a base, the body was dispatched to Adam Smith who rollered on some paint – and a fine job the lad did too. Basically all the logos on this shell are painted, no decals here!

The car is fitted with all the LED lights that come in the kit and some Carson low-profile wheels and tyres that look pretty close to what the real car runs. The Beemer will now reside on Kerry's shelf and not be run, so you won't see any updates on this one unless of course you are interested in how much dust it has collected per chance...
