Woah, I just finished watching the build video of this a few minutes ago and glad to see the continuation :)

[@TAMIYALegends]

Honokami-sama Excellent my friend 🤩👊🏻 I’ll post a video in this series every Tuesday 🚗💨💨💨 Thanks so much for watching 😎👊🏻

[@snootster]

What a little ripper! The body looks way nicer with the new decals, that yellow pops!

[@TAMIYALegends]

Timmo Excellent I’m glad you like it, looks way better than it did 😎 Thanks for watching my friend 👊🏻

[@waynejohnson1659]

Your channel inspired me to build a speed run car with a twist. A lunchbox lol. Ballraced, brushless 18t pinion and 45mph on 2s lipo. Got a adjustable motor mount coming and a 24t pinion. Keep up the good work 👍

[@TAMIYALegends]

wayne johnson Excellent Wayne that’s a great speed to get a Lunchbox going 😎🚗💨💨💨💨💨

[@RCHobbyShed]

That's going great for a stocker. Nice n smooth! 👍

[@TAMIYALegends]

[@TAMIYALegends]

ixlr8 Excellent thanks buddy 😎👊🏻

[@waitthatsgoingtocostyouext5450]

Great video!👍 Nicely improved body work with the stickers and boy, it can shift too!! Im looking forward to what you have next for this car .👍

[@TAMIYALegends]

Wait! That's going to cost you extra. Thanks buddy 🤩 Yeah I’m really happy with the jumps in motors so far, reaching some pretty serious speeds with it now 🚗💨💨💨 Thanks for watching my friend 😊👊🏻

[@sjdz8123]

That's an awesome looking NSX. Wish I hadn't sold my TA03 one back in the day....

[@TAMIYALegends]

Sj Dz Yes it’s one of the nicest shells in my opinion 🤩🤩🤩 It’s a shame at the speed this car is now hitting I can’t see it 😂👊🏻 Thanks for watching buddy 😎

Can’t believe how quick it looks...it’s gunna be an absolute weapon

[@TAMIYALegends]

Chris Stitt Thanks Chris 😊👊🏻

[@zeitgeist1348]

i had a ta05 chassis. i think it is the best plastic chassis TC design ever!

[@TAMIYALegends]

Ikonen & Wertanlagen I don’t really know enough about all the different TC chassis’s, but this certainly is a good one my friend 🤩🤩🤩 Thanks for watching 😊👊🏻

[@milosrcernycerny5537]

It is really big pinion. I have only 15 teeth pinion in my TA03. I must change it, because it really flies even with standard motor. Nice run Glenn, keep up a good work.

[@TAMIYALegends]

MilosRCerny Černý Yeah smaller spur and bigger pinion does the trick lol 😂 🚗💨💨💨. Thanks as always for watching my friend 😊👊🏻

[@samheron857]

Looks good mate :) good to see it up and running!!

[@TAMIYALegends]

sam heron Well that’s down to you Sam, this car was so good to go I was blown away 🤩. I haven’t touched a thing, just added the electrics and the thing is awesome 😎👊🏻

[@svenmaier2402]

Great car! Thanks for sharing!

[@TAMIYALegends]

Sven Maier Thanks for watching Sven 😊👊🏻

[@mattridge5986]

Gonna be a flyer that Glenn

[@TAMIYALegends]

Matt Ridge It certainly is my friend, getting to speeds now I’m pretty uncomfortable with if that makes sense 😬🙏🏻🙏🏻 Thanks for watching Matt 👊🏻

[@UNBOXINGRADIOCONTROL]

Nice video mates👍 a lot of hassle to change the motor. Great job on the stickers, it turns out very well👍👍

[@TAMIYALegends]

UNBOXING RADIO CONTROL Thanks buddy 😎 Yeah got the correct size to now which makes life much easier 😂👊🏻

[@davidturner2365]

That’s well quick for a standard Motor awesome

[@TAMIYALegends]

David Turner Yeah it went well David, the jumps in the speed on each motor have been pretty big 🚗💨💨💨 Thanks for watching buddy 😊👊🏻

[@davidturner2365]

Go brushless man

[@markhollinshead5795]

cant wait ive got all the supper stock motors and a lightly tuned erm thats slow car looks brill

[@TAMIYALegends]

[@diaspo]

Looks smashing mate. Stickers were a nice choice.

[@TAMIYALegends]

Marietta Corsini Thanks buddy 😊 Yes much happier with it now 👊🏻 Thanks for watching

[@Leonsrchobbys]

I know exactly what you mean mate I'm the same if it's not right when I've finished I've got to put it straight again or it will do my head in.it looks great stay safe my friend👍🇬🇧😎😊👊

[@TAMIYALegends]

Leons rc hobbys Totally my friend, I knew at the end of the last video I did on it, it didn’t look good lol 😬 Hope you and your family are staying as safe as you can buddy 👊🏻

[@r35553h]

You know, Glenn, the long hex tool from the DB01 fits the chassis as well...

[@TAMIYALegends]

rese banget Lol 😂 I didn’t even know that came with the DB01, because I only built the chassis I didn’t even open that parts bag up 🤪 Massive thanks for letting me know that, 🤩🤩🤩

[@cloudninephoto]

Great job. Enjoying this and looking forward to the evolution of this build. Would you ever consider doing a crawler build? Just wondering. All the best from N.Ireland.

[@TAMIYALegends]

cloudninephoto Thanks buddy 😊 Yes if I can keep the channel going I’m hoping to add a Tamiya crawler and Nitro at some point 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Thanks for watching 👊🏻

[@cloudninephoto]

TAMIYA Legends. Thanks. Look forward to seeing that 👍.

[@StewMac570]

Love it!

[@TAMIYALegends]

Stew- Mac Cheers buddy, small steps but I’m pretty happy with where I’m up to, back out tomorrow with the 6.5 🚗💨💨💨

[@StewMac570]

TAMIYA Legends good to see you are enjoying it! Can’t wait to see it when you drop down that spur gear.

[@paulsrc2195]

Mate the wheels on your Castrol NSX you can get in black they would look trick on it sorry for the late call would have been handy before the black wheel painting

[@tamiyafrog3220]

Wow that's fast.

[@TAMIYALegends]

tamiya frog Thanks buddy, yes the speeds ramp up pretty quickly on this one 🚗💨💨💨

[@BlvlWmpower]

incredible.

[@darthnagus5457]

Stickers👍👍👍

Darth Nagus Thanks for watching buddy 😊👊🏻

[@EVO-s2s]

HONDA NSX my bestcar! bro😁👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@TAMIYALegends]

케피 It’s a gorgeous shell my friend 🤩 Thanks for watching 😊👊🏻

[@hondofourfivetwo9347]

I’m liking the color combo with the decals just open the extra body holes in the front in the shape of the vents then it’ll be like you meant to do it for downforce 😂 Driving with a front one way takes a lot of getting used to I would recommend putting a spool up front if you can find one rather than a diff (Tamiya made one for this car I had one and modified it for a different project) and hey a different life for this could be putting the one way back up front and spool in the rear along with some drift tires or hard compound rubber tires and do Gymkhana videos 🍺😎👍🏽

[@TAMIYALegends]

Hondo fourfivetwo Lol love this comment my friend, so many great ideas for future videos 🤔👊🏻 I have a question for you, I’ve been calling it a one way front diff, but I don’t actually think that’s what it is, the wheels spin freely forward under no power, but if I spin them in reverse it turns all four wheels. So am I right in thinking this is a one spool?

[@ChrisLee-UK]

Can you not use a regular L shaped allen wrench and pass it just through the center inner hole Glenn, would save some work.. Shell looks awesome and yup, runs really well on the stock 540! Going to be a weapon!

[@TAMIYALegends]

Chris Lee - UK Thanks Chris yeah I’ve now got a proper tool for the job 😊 Thanks as always for watching my friend 😎👊🏻

[@brucebenner7606]

is there another tamiya car the same as this but i like a shaft driven ones any idearwhat should i get thanks great video like that body color

[@TAMIYALegends]

bruce benner Yes look at the Tamiya TB range my friend 👊🏻

[@19Marc79]

Nice. Instead of equipping my 1/10 shelf queen collection each with cheap brushed ESC (Yuki Borsti) and Tamiya Torque Tuned brushed can motor, I will solder ONE expensive Tekin brushed ESC to a Torque Tuned and then put that combo into every car in the summer on one day, when the weather is perfect :) Like that I don´t have to buy multiple combos and can REALLY compare the cars. I am really looking forward to that and will take GPS measurements, too. The winner will be bought a 2nd time and the become a runner/basher with BL combo in it ;_)

[@TAMIYALegends]

19Marc79 Excellent sounds like a great plan my friend 😎👊🏻 Thanks for watching

[@adrianharrison5208]

I am used to my monster trucks so for me that is really smothe and for a normanl can its quick

[@TAMIYALegends]

adrian harrison Thanks for watching Adrian 😊👊🏻

[@weldenmad7197]

Awesome man. Question. Im getting two midnight pumpkins too build one for me and one for my wife to build with me and wondering what motor would be good and reliable for them. I want to replace the one it comes with. Thank you.

[@TAMIYALegends]

Frankie LaBelle Hey 👋 They run great with the Tamiya sports tuned on 2s my friend 😎🚗💨💨💨

[@weldenmad7197]

Nice. So the esc it comes with handles a 2s 40-45c. And thank you again

[@TAMIYALegends]

Frankie LaBelle Yes the TBLE02s works perfectly on 2s, but it doesn’t have Lipo cut off, so you should invest in a Lipo alarm, very cheap to buy on eBay 😊👊🏻

[@christopherlastname7638]

I have used super glue to fill holes I put in my body! I use painters tape over the holes on the outside then put super glue on the inside and the holes are gone!

[@TAMIYALegends]

Christopher Last Name Oh that’s an interesting technique 👍🏻. I might try that in the future 👊🏻 Thanks for the tip 😊

[@rcalltypes8230]

It would be interesting to see, what top speed is with the standard Motor & Gearing all the way up to your highest KV Brushless motors on 3s. I think it’s, don’t worry about the body! But I need high speed wheels.. for 100kph+ speed runs, don’t ask me how I know😏😎👍🏻

[@TAMIYALegends]

Rcalltypes Yeah that’s pretty much what I’ve done 😊👊🏻 I’m out today again with it, I’ll pass the 100kph today all being wall 😎🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

[@CiderPang27]

I hate one way diffs with a passion. So much I sold my trf415 because of it.

[@TAMIYALegends]

CiderPang27 I think I got it wrong, I think it’s actually a one way spool? Not sure if it’s the same thing!? Thanks for watching buddy 😊👊🏻

[@CiderPang27]

@@TAMIYALegends same thing basically. Still hate them lol. I have a Tb Evo 1 that has one in. Have to think about corner speed on the track or you lose it.

[@leehurst6922]

One ways not great for speed runs. You only get braking on the rear wheels

[@TAMIYALegends]

Lee Hurst Yep I’ve developed a stopping strategy, full lock and full brake and cross my fingers 😂👊🏻 So far so good 😬😬😬

[@jamescunliffe9872]

Like everything apart from one thing, the motor doesn't do it justice to me it's like waking from a nightmare and discovering that the engine in your prized Ferrari has been replaced by a b&q strimmer motor!!!:)

[@TAMIYALegends]

James Cunliffe Lol James yes this was just the starting point for this project. I wanted to see the jumps in top speeds as I upgrade the motors. Thanks as always for watching buddy 😊👊🏻

[@jamescunliffe9872]

@@TAMIYALegends might need an extra servo for a drogue shoot to stop in that short of a distance!!!;) itill be like a rocket powered bannana with a hot motor and that 64tooth pinion!!!!

James Cunliffe Oh ok now that would be seriously cool 🚗💨💨🪂🪂🪂

[@jamescunliffe9872]

@@TAMIYALegends oh man! Look at what's going on In Texas!!!!:( RFB reference, besides that the chute would be pretty cool! Ah but would it be three channel or a tied in separate transmitter and receiver?:)

you only run stock why whinge about it

[@TAMIYALegends]

BRETT BREUEL Whinge about it? This is the first video in the series starting with the 540! I go up in motors every video now. Not sure what you saw I was whinging about?🤷🏼‍♂️ Thanks for watching 👊🏻
