JConcepts has taken the bead and thrown it out the window, instead opting for a sort [...]

The Tamiya TRF801XT is, by all accounts, a fine model automobile. Apparently Tamiya wasn’t happy enough with it though. So they went back to the drawing board and then to the track, then back to the drawing board, then the track again, and so on and so forth until they had a truck that performed better than their previous attempt.
