true..!!

the M-chassis is small enough and I can play with it in the house or drive-way/street for hours...

just need to tune it right for the 5 minutes when needed...

I've never owned a M-chassis before cause I don't like Tamiya...

but I saw how they race the M-chassis this year and it was fun and quite exciting, so why not give it a try..

the only cons is.. (also the main reason I don't like Tamiya..) the hop-ups cost much more than the kit...

yah, tamiya's are like toyota's in my mind .. im not a big fan either, but they have a lot of the ordinary folk non-competition style cars too which is great for just screwing around the local parking lot or park or watnot.

ive watched some of those tamiya races in LA. was fun to watch.
