Thanks for the sale alert, Steve. You got me hooked on Tamiya rally cars. ![]() Got the Beetle and the MK.II done with a Quattro on order. LOL. MX-01 is a cool chassis. This was the first Tamiya kit I’ve done since the Blackfoot back in the late 80’s. FWIW....Yeah Racing has a set of shocks that work well on the MF-01. Very nice shocks and very tunable (not that this will be a performance machine....). While these say "on road" the 55mm ones are what you need for this chassis. Just use the stock springs from the kit. The on-road springs that come with this are too short in my opinion. They make a 60MM off road set but those are too large for this chassis and end up limiting suspension travel. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CVDTVX8...roduct_details Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by OnTheTrail; 01-07-2022 at 06:32 AM. |

^^ Looks great, nice work! I'm up to three of these little guys now. One's a CRX mini, one's a 1/10 Porsche, and ones still the "rally beetle" but now new and improved with some 1.9 wheels and tires. |

What Porsche? Is your a rally car or road car? I just picked up the 911 Carrera RSR TT02 from my LHS yesterday. Also have a 45th Anniversary on order. | |

Looks great! I love the rally cars. I haven’t even opened mine lol. Been working on an XV01 and some Tt02’s. I have a set of those Yeah Racing shocks for my Tt02r. Maybe I’ll pick some up for the MF01X as well. They seem like a good deal for everything they come with but I’ve yet to build them. Still need to get bearings and I saw some front driveshafts I might buy. Glad you’re having fun with them! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

Nice cars! Could you share a pic of the beetle with 1.9’s? Sounds cool and I want to see it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

It now has HPI Pirell tires on more rally looking wheels mounted up, but otherwise looks the same ![]() |
