_A 1:5 version of this would be so sick!_

[@EriMCardenasRC]

Ooo hell yeah 🔥🔥

[@anonymous_message]

Notice how when you get FREE stuff you never say anything negative about a product? 🤣😭

[@MessingerRC]

Notice how u never get free stuff because nobody cares about ur opinion 😭😭😢

[@anonymous_message]

@@MessingerRC oh you’re his dick rider huh 😭😭🤣

[@idan678]

mark was pretty quiet when traxxas sue bunch of companies too so...

[@anonymous_message]

@@idan678 my point exactly

[@ericford3115]

Stop bashing him that is his thing he does have bad and good grow up

[@ricerocketdave12]

That b-roll footage you got was epic!

[@T00LF00L]

OMG I WANT THIS CAR!! I LOVE old Datsuns!😍❤️

[@raymondhenson5648]

Nice footage bro

[@krvp76]

You know these are going brushless and hitting those night street runs 😉

[@storyracing387]

I've been a Minitruckin fan since the 90s!!! I had a 96 Hardbody, lowered, neons, system...still miss that truck! A friend from school an early 80s similar to this rc back in the day!! Love the style, love the video! Awesome!!!

[@mattknutson2371]

With decals and stickers use some windex and push the bubbles out as you aline and dry.

[@hughnelson7492]

Had men on order. 78 Datsun 620 owner and anytime a RC comes out based on your real cars. Got to grab one. (there is a version that does come with a battery and a charger.

[@bluegroovemodelsports9650]

Truck looks very nice . Great video

[@robertruiz9466]

Smooth review loved it

[@MikeMac90]

Man some lights on it with this footage would look sick! 5:25

[@chrisalan3699]

The hobby just keeps getting better and better!!!!!

[@scottconstantine891]

I wish the east coast would step up their game in the rc world. Not many rc bash places in the 804 area

[@paulclancy2404]

Yup newyork

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Really nice set up cool review

[@kanakti0n338]

Sweet ride , you should take a look at the Kyosho Skyline 2000 GTR “Hakosuka” for a JDM the detail on that is amazing.

[@glennjthompson332]

Same here!😆The datsun truck doesn't have light buckets for street run at night, Team Associated dropped the ball on that one, I hope kyosho fazer line will make the real one!🤨(datsun)

[@douggilreath1984]

Hair dryer for the stickers does wonders.

[@kirkmurray5431]

Great looking truck 🛻

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Great looking ride! Nice to see something different for a body - LOVE the Datsun! A bit basic but this is not a race kit. I defintely see one of these in my future. Now, to go and search for upgrades.................! 😂

[@richie_rich75]

Can’t wait to get a hold of one and I haven’t played with a team associated since the time TC-3 was first introduced and never changed over to the other version they had.

[@skree_fpv436]

Very cool looking truck. My buddy back in high school had an early 80's Nissan Sentra in that same color.

[@bobbylefebvre6298]

Always great information brother enjoy the weekend I like it

[@robertruiz9466]

That's a must have

[@hondofourfivetwo9347]

I love the look of this. I already have the Hoonicorn version it is actually geared to be run on 3s if you are on 2s it needs a bigger pinion. I’m hopeful with all the recent releases on this version of the platform Associated comes out with more hop ups

[@clintlasher8436]

Great looking truck. Reminds me of my highschool days

[@robertparadise3255]

Reminds me when I was in Japan back in the 80s. I'm definitely going to look into this one

[@wadedickerman2875]

Dude the hat is 🔥

[@DozerBoyRc]

Hmmmm.... thinking go brushless and go drag setup!!! Lol or just wider tires in rear kinda thing. But has a great look to it as is, body wise. I can see an airbrush in it's future.

[@Mr.OldSkewl]

definitely needs a light kit but definitely a looker

[@totalwireless1052]

I love it it stoked

[@Casitascrawlers]

You have a good eye & it’s not just you it caught my eye & was just going to look into it that thank you for the look at it it totally reminds me of the era it came from I love Associated they are always coming up with cool RC’s. I’m planning on getting one for sure mostly because it’s a truck & how it looks. It’s a Mini Truck I remember Mini Truck magazine & I had a show winning Mazda B200 mini.

[@robertruiz9466]

Grew up having this truck in the islands

[@cgscott]

Get Doug to put those stickers on for you. He’s a pro. :)

[@elrojinegro2119]

I look forward to your help, it is my first time buying a rc car and I would like you to help me choose the best battery, first of all, thank you

[@johnlujan8706]

It does look good! I'd like to have one.

[@therealcletusrc]

Mark, how did you get your losi drag truck to go straight? Mine spins out every time and never get traction, the wheelie bar is not even scratched because it just spins out every time, please help

[@dhtrapper7894]

Absolutely iconic! I like the color but the Orange or Red may make it look solid overall. Wish it were a RTR as I have Traxxas items currently. But regardless solid and clean!

[@waynetate9895]

Headlights and taillights and neon / under glow lights would look incredible at nighttime street car meet up events.

[@covecityboys]

Mark. I’m going to be in /Ft. Worth for work for 2 months man. Where can I go around there to do some RC stuff? I plan on bringing my XRT or slightly modified 1/10 Summit, a scx24 based custom crawler, a 1/10 cheater rig crawler and a 1/16 E-Revo.

[@MR.TOYBOX]

I like it. Just wish they would follow Traxxas and lose the Body Clips.

[@jacobcervantes9513]

Traxxas would probably sue again since they have a patent for it but it would be awesome if all the other brands were doing it.

[@BIGoshkoshbgosh]

​@@jacobcervantes9513they sue for everything nothing new from a company that started by stealing ideas

[@MR.TOYBOX]

@@jacobcervantes9513 Other brands already are. It’s just more expensive because you need an internal body cage to make it work .

[@hughnelson7492]

or like the drift guys and some scale crawlers. Magnets on top of body posts. @@MR.TOYBOX

[@paulclancy2404]

Not even a exaggerated statement, going say they had something do with putting them out buis also but I was thinking HPI and you correct I've been into the hobby on off since the beginning of Traxxas and they copied this brand first , a copy that was extremely cheaper and more durable than RC10 - I think it was a kit my father put together but I may be mistaken, Bullet , and old hobbystore still had them 10 years ago or so I wish I grabbed a couple

[@axellness]

Anyone know if it's for indoor track use ?

[@glennjthompson332]

Nice try on this one!🙄I hope kyosho will make a better platform than this?😅 Kyosho fazer is right up my alley.🤨👍

[@billnewman1970]

I wouldn't put the stickers on that truck looks great with out them

[@brandaneakright6082]

It looks really good, but honestly the chassis looks a lot like the kyosho fazer. I’m a big fan of the kyosho fazer, got a few of them and the traxxas 4tec’s. I’ll check it out though, thanks for sharing.

[@paulclancy2404]

I took mad van off shelf few jumps and Jamed or broke pinion gear ⚙️ I knew should left alone😂 I have chevelle also , I really bought em for the shelf , and use lightly I'd have order spare parts first before beat them I added diff oil I think to the van , meanwhile I seen guys beat heck out of the stock one

[@jerryvolpini7987]

It's a 4wd, bathtub chassis - of course they look simiar! There's only so many ways to design a 4wd on-road car 👍

[@glennjthompson332]

Almost.. Not even close to the material🙄, hopefully if they make the real one?🤔

[@toolbaggers]

Wish you tried 3s.

[@SuppleBun]

the thing that irks me is the price. for much cheaper i can buy the kyosho fazer mk2 datsun 240z for i think nearly 100 dollars cheaper

[@enriqueperales1422]

Wow it’s a clean body

[@CoachDRC]

Was that 66’? Didn’t look like 132’

[@robertruiz9466]

Decal decals please

[@MeinNameistFlo]

Mask the body and paint the fenders from the outside with black, should look fine without a crinkle.

[@radsk8dad932]

I just feel like for over $300 this should have came at least brushless, the price point doesn't fit the quality in my opinion. I understand the body's really cool but you can get a Fazer with just as cool of a body for cheaper. I'm sure they'll have a sale eventually enough and I'll pick it up then brushless swap it 😎

[@raymondwatt8687]

Looks better without decals..needs lights

[@scottconstantine891]

Will that body fit on a vendetta?

[@glennjthompson332]

I don't know?🤔

[@Rahvanteli]

Absolutely not

[@ToxMod]

Metropolitan Datsun 😮

[@robertruiz9466]

1st Nissan GT-R HD hood front. Mirrors

[@michaelsherman1018]

Have the body painted!

[@robertstoner728]

Rear wheels need spacers

[@covecityboys]

What is this? Scale 1/8 mile?

[@noslackadventures8503]

Tape anything that gets a black stick off and just paint for better look.

[@pingstag]

👍

[@Willrccars]

66ft in the drag race?

[@andyb9994]

Looks good, I'm not a fan of stickers on the fenders, not much fun to put them on...🤬

[@mattknutson2371]

P.S. Love the content

[@bohan9957]

OMG it's not a Traxxas!!!

[@xxrfmxx]

yeah wish they put the stickers on for you no one is a pro at that detail plus $335.99 is a bit much

[@derekkeith108]

A little expensive for brushed.

[@wernercornelius5151]

I had a exact and I mean EXACTLY same REAL LIFE one back home in South Africa I loved it but it got stolen😢😢 and totaled 😢😢

[@robertruiz9466]

Tokyo drift 12

[@DrBwacko]

truth is not really new. the platform is old with a new body. I'll admit to being a Team Associated fan boy but they are doing a Traxxas and just putting new bodies on older platforms

[@Js_junkyard]

Give me a clear body and I’ll buy it. I have a 1:1 from 1976.

[@trixonipad2]

Noti gang

[@bco529283]

Come on and put your big boy shorts on and put the stickers on 😢

[@ememeable]

Hi One video usually says it all and so those the microchip I want to bring to light a new purpose for it A new purpose A new market A new market thus more demand I also hope you rip the benefits before other people catch up with the new market gap I am your artificial intelligence ET so to speak Business Market Degree from Thames Valley University London Graduated with honors distinction What is this new gap. Remember Atari video game Pac Man? Thus you can set up tracks whereby you have chasers and then the get away car or RC car 🚗 on review The purpose being to test the suspension around tight corners The shift from zero to max under hot pursuit etc. The success factor will be the track design You can model a high street however it should be compact and complex enough to display the desired features for the review It should be a design that can be replicated in any average home don't forget there are only few mansions in this world If you get it right we are then talking major block buster rc event It will be an escape from the usual two rc car stand off Sincerely Ejike

[@BulldogB101]

If you wanna send me the body and stickers, I’ll do them all for you. Send it back to you after.

[@hortonsweeping]

Cheap

[@chilly7261]

Sorry, but I have to say, pixilated thumbnails is so cringe...
