Tamiya Holiday Buggy & Sand Rover

[@bradbrown8759]

So cool to see these OG classics stretch there legs. Finest rides of the early 80s. And you deserve an award for the best camera work one could ask for. You can really see the action of the suspension.

😁 Thank you for your great comment 👍, glad you enjoyed ! Best regards

[@lowercentenary]

Hands down the best video on youtube showcasing these two buggies. Brilliant soundtrack to round it off. 👌

[@Tamor70]

Much appreciated your great feedback - glad you liked it :-) best regards!

[@michaeltaylor3276]

[@blockaderunner74]

Great film, the cars and the location look stunning.

[@martinthorpe4885]

My brother and I had one of these each way back in 1982 which got us both started in rc car racing. 42 years down the road and I'm still racing 🏁 😊. Wish I'd have kept that original Holiday buggy from then! Have got the re-release however it's just not the same tho! ☹️

[@Tamor70]

Cool! Thanks for your great comment, much appreciated 👍😃! And yes, the 80ies Original an the "Re-issue" - I run both - they're just not the same. Maybe you once can catch an Original somewhere though, if you want so.... best regards!

Tamyia RWD always seem like great fun to drive around.

[@BuoyEngine]

This is very precious video!! precious tamiya car with nice filming. I love this smoothly following and nice angle camera on sandy beach. Great scenes for TAMIYA fun.

[@louismorel2001]

Never saw such quality! The video with the buggy champ is awsome too!

[@Tamor70]

Hi Louis, thanks for your great comment, glad you've enjoyed ! best regards

[@MrAubstaa]

Awesome video bud!! Love love love the slow motion. I would way rather see the slow motion with some good music than the "now so popular" go pro. Not a huge fan of the first person view. I love to see the articulation of the suspension and the movements of the vehicle as it is bouncing along. Very cool!! Keep it up man.

[@Tamor70]

Thanks Matteo, for your great comment! ....these classics always need to be remembered....:-) best regards, D.

[@Tamor70]

Thank you for your great words! :-) A few times it was a little bit too sandy since it was quite windy...... but big fun for sure :-) best regards

[@kateandrews8506]

Terrific video and soundtrack. Top work

[@traxxasfans]

[@Tamor70]

Thank you for your comment, and I'm glad you enjoyed :-) ! Best

[@sunnbc]

Bravo! simply perfect video edition.

[@Tamor70]

Thank you for your great comment and opinion ! Obviously, I also prefer to see and show "what's hidden for normal viewing".... best regards, Daniel

[@Tamor70]

Thanks to all for your comments! Glad you enjoyed :-)

[@Tamor70]

Thanks Riccardo for your nice comment! To your good question: No, I've been using Tamiya's Lightly Tuned Motor (540 size) for this shooting. I actually never went with the 380.... best regards, Daniel

[@Tamor70]

Yes, you're right ! ...also, after 30 years they're still great fun..:-) Thanks for your comment, rgds

[@timothyma7298]

This is so beautiful

[@riccardo8141]

Wonderful footage taking me back to those glory days when I was a kid a Tamiya car was only a dream.......a curiosity...the are running the original 380 stock motor?

[@extrahulp]

It was a good film only 1minute to long but I want such car back! In the years '80 I had the body once from a friend.

[@Tamor70]

Thanks for your great comment, glad you enjoyed, even a bit too long clip....I remember when I was thinking about its lenght...best regards

[@timothyma7298]

OK I JUST BOUGHT THE HOLIDAY BUGGY TODAY AND I LOVEEEEE IT

[@mepartolacaja]

nice video, nice cars!!...

[@jasperbarlow2582]

plastic drive shafts wore on mine where they entered the gearbox, I added a cell or two to the standard 6v battery which may have over-stressed them, I wanted the sand scorcher but was out of my price range as a 14 year old.

[@Tamor70]

Thanks for your nice comment ! And yes, with 7.2 or even 8.4 V batteries you can over-stress "the construction" (for sure with 8.4 V). Hope, in the meanwhile you got a sand scorcher as well .... :-) best regards!

[@rexrcs]

So awesome

[@Tamor70]

Thanks, glad you liked it :-) !!! best regards

[@gerardog98]

Beautiful video, I used to have a holiday buggy when I was a kid, just bought the new edition.... just wandering ... what tires are u using in the holiday buggy !! Seems like a nice upgrade

[@Tamor70]

Hi ! Thanks for your great comment! Actually, in this video it is all vintage, also the tires. So these tires are back from the time (80ies) and as far as I know, never been re-issued on any re-issue model... I also have the new edition /re-issue of the Holiday Buggy...it's different but also fine to drive - so, have fun with yours :-) best regards

[@DeathtrapCult]

WOW just wow

[@louismorel2001]

I agree! Absolutely beautiful and so smooth

[@TheRcRacer]

Fantastic Video!

[@Tamor70]

Thanks ! Glad you liked it :-) best regards

[@StankoPerko]

Wonderful!

[@scottishdigger4991]

Oh man iv just picked up a vintage original holiday buggy for £10 loads of stuff included all original

[@Tamor70]

Sounds like a awesome deal, lucky you :-) !

[@Mattiastbs]

Really nice video with great cars. What song is in the video? I hear "The lonely shepherd" but can't find this mix ;)

[@Tamor70]

+Mattias Nowak Hi there, thanks for you comment. Yes, the song is a Remix of that song - should be found with entering James Last as well. best regards

[@Mattiastbs]

Tamor70 Thank you for your reply! :D

[@FrankygoestoHobbywood]

a very nice video..!

[@Tamor70]

Frank Kathoewer Thank you! :-)

[@lawnshedguy]

Great video! Where do you live? The beaches you use in your videos look to be perfect for filming.

[@Tamor70]

+lawnshedguy Thank you :-) I live in switzerland - so no beaches :-( . So, this Location I've found in Italy, North-east - and yes, this spot is just perfect... best regards

[@danielstermark8752]

How fast does it drive? I can get mine up to 20 or 24 km/h

[@Tamor70]

Hi, thanks for your comment/question. Actually I can't tell you exactly, but with the RS-540 motor installed, I would guess or estimate 25-30 km/h. Best regards!

[@Tamiya8584]

Thumbs up for that :)

[@Tamor70]

Hi! It's a Remix of 'The lonely shepherd' , rgds

[@bigneet6081]

Theres a holiday bug for sale for a £100 should i get it?

[@Tamor70]

Hi there, it depends on it's condition though....but the price doesn't seem to be too expensive....best regards

[@tgreenm]

Nice video... :-) Sub'ed.

[@Tamor70]

Thanks a lot ! best regards:-)

[@nomusicrc]

When I first heard the music I thought I was watching the movie kill Bill volume one is the difference between the two cars just the body

[@Tamor70]

Thanks for your comment! Yes, QT used this music in KB though...and yes, chassis is same on both...best regards

[@dylanfathbruckner2549]

does anybody know if its possible to put wheels off the hornet buggy on the sand rover buggy?

[@Tamor70]

Hi Dylan, at the rear end it doesn't really work. The Spike Tyres/Wheels will be blocked by the axle holders. Unless you do some manual adjustments. Front I guess should work fine, best regards, D.

[@dylanfathbruckner2549]

ok

[@RFVCXR200R]

Dylan Fathbruckner on the new version you can supposedly use Frog universals to get the proper stub axle length, and of course use the rear wheel adapters too. When my parts come in I'll find out for sure!

[@dylanfathbruckner2549]

sweet thank you guys
