Fantastic series! 😃

[@rc-dom-uk]

thankyou so much 😊👍

[@AddamsPlayground]

Great head to head Dom! It was very close and both did very well. Loved watching them whip around and sling some sand!

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks Addam. it was close and another time it could have been the SHS. the javelin just screams round that first tight corner though . just flicked it round rally style . great fun😊👍

[@BasBoyRC]

Cool match up and they are close together. I think the Javelin handles just a little better.

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks mate . the hotshot handles the rough terrain really well but the javelin is like a rocket in the smoother stuff in my experience 😊👍

[@MauzyrockRC]

I wanted to root for Tamiya, alas Kyosho won me over today :)

[@rc-dom-uk]

the Javelin is a nice machine . thanks for watching 😊👍

[@madsrcbuggy]

Yeah, Dom, great entertainment as always! I really like that area you got available, you can design some pretty nice stages, especially stage 2 was great with the incline! Of course it was expected that the Kyosho would win, but was at a tighter margin than I would have imagined. I really do like that Super Hotshot, it is making its way onto my wish list, ha ha!

[@rc-dom-uk]

i did. enjoy the last stage . it was 👍 the super hotshot is great and works out good value with the extras . thanks for watching mate 😊👍

[@yodadarksideGreenHawksRC]

That was fun man!! Very interesting pair up there Dom, and some very good driving skills on display! I'm honestly shocked how close that was..... The Javelin is far superior in design with its racing based ancestry, the Tamiya done so well to give it such a close match. Both cars looked so well composed out there, and both handled the course with ease! Great run Dom! 👍 👍 👍

[@rc-dom-uk]

Thanks for watching guys 😊👍spot on comment 😊👍

[@HaydadRC]

Nice work Dom! The Super Hotshot sure made it interesting but the Javelin reigned supreme!👍😊

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks mate … maybe the thundershot will beat the javelin ?😊👍

[@Paul__FC]

First! Very nice match up! I will always be team Tamiya!

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks Paul . 😊👍

[@RC-Cinema]

nicely done! great watch and love the the mini track! and, yeah Go Team Kyosho! :) i personally love the optima mid and turbo optima, and the Javelin is just a joy to drive also! :)

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks for watching 😊👍 this use to be an optima but the body got broke so i turned it into the jav. they really are nice buggies 👍

[@NoNoRc]

Super Hot Shot had me worried there for a min 😅. It did insanely well.. not sure you can get closer than that. Glad the javelin pulled it off 💪😁. Another great one mate 👍

[@rc-dom-uk]

thankyou mate . yeah the sh certainly was on form . these 4wd buggies seem a lot closer than the rwd stuff 😊👍

[@MarkBryanRC]

Hey Dom, that was a great match-up, two very close competitors! I was expecting it to be close but not that close! Great entertainment mate! 😁👏👍

[@rc-dom-uk]

cheers Mark 😊👍two great buggies 😊👍

[@theoagrc]

Great stuff Dom. Supershot started so well too!

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks buddy 😊👍

[@RallyandTrail]

Quality video Dom 😎 As much as I love Tamiya I have to go with the Kyosho just because of how good it looks 😍

[@rc-dom-uk]

the javelin is a looker for sure . thanks for watching mate 😊👍

[@Toystheyrenot]

Good to see these 2 compete each other! The Kyosho handles better but the Supershot put up a good fight.👍😊

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks mate for watching 😊👍 very close . could have gone either way 👍

[@RCBirds]

Awesome race Dom. The SHS's a great car, but against a Kyosho from that same era, he's a hatd life

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks mate . yeah they are both really good . 😊👍

[@scaleworksRC]

Awesome match-up and nice captures 👍 You got me hyped to build a Lancia 037 with those run videos 😁

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks mate and have fun with the 037 😊👍

[@scaleworksRC]

@@rc-dom-uk If you had to choose one to build first.. Stratos, 037, or Delta Integrale. Which would you choose?

[@rc-dom-uk]

ahhhh no idea tbh . maybe the 037 .

[@scaleworksRC]

@@rc-dom-uk Thanks! That helps 👍

[@lo2713]

A close match, but im kinda glad the javlin took the win 😁 im running its older sibling in a few more vintage events next month. So i felt i had to cheer it on 👍

[@rc-dom-uk]

good luck with the racing and glad you enjoyed it 😊👍

[@bradkalman2353]

Wow lots of flies.

[@rc-dom-uk]

sand bees mate 👍they nest in the sand walls

[@bradkalman2353]

I love the Javelin, but I love my super hot shot more.I can't believe it lost to it.

[@rc-dom-uk]

could have gone either way mate 🤷‍♂️👍

[@rcinhand9671]

I like your match ups! The Javelin did well, but I think the Super Hotshot could do better with some adjustments!

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it. the shs handles the very rough terrain a lot better so maybe should have had a mixed terrain final round but tbh that second course was such good fun 😂👍

[@crow7291]

Seamed to me that the SHS was faster but didn't quite handle turns as well, different tyres maybe different result or even closer. Nice Vid mate. 😊

[@PeteWylieRC]

Very nice Dom. Two excellent buggies but the Kyosho takes it. Are you keeping an eye on the drivetrain after what happened with it before?

[@rc-dom-uk]

thanks mate . this was the run which broke the drivetrain 👍 haven’t had a chance to run it since i fixed it up 👍

[@PeteWylieRC]

@@rc-dom-uk Ah right. Yes driving in sand is probably not ideal for it. I think the Tamiya is better on that score 🤔

[@rc-dom-uk]

i think it was the chai belt losing tension . it wasn’t keeping tight on the spools in motion so at the rear as it was going round the spool it was going wide and into the gear box cover and shredded it .
