Has anyone ever seen a Radio Controlled Toyota Yaris before?

Would anyone be interested in buying one?

Never seen 1 and i've already got a Tamiya Scooby so i probably wouldn't buy 1!

Cheers :thumbsup:

If anyone can find a Shell, it might be possible to base it on the fwd chassis that they use for the Tamiya Minis. There must be a Vitz one available in Japan.

Hmmm......

Never mind R/C, what you want is slot cars. I've got, in no particular order, GT-Ones, F1, Corolla WRC, Celica GT4, Celica 4WD Turbo - even a Gp5 DTM Celica and Castrol Supra!

Cheers for the pointers.

I'll be looking to use the Tamiya FWD Rally Chasis and a custom-moulded Shell.

They'll come with a PSR Sport Decal kit. ;-)

We'll be selling them on the team website. ETA September 2004.

The tricky part is getting the Shell moulded so that I can make repeat orders.

As for the exhaust....looks like it'll be costing me around 1k for the system but that includes the precision design from scratch so I hope that subsequent orders would be cheaper. Will keep you posted.

Regards

Phil

You need to get Toyota to stock them in their dealerships, like Honda do with the R/C BTCC Type-Rs...

And I'll probably get a custom made stainless jobby, then bring back a ceramic manifold from SoCal this June...
