Thank you Uncle Tamiya
for me, Tamiya mini 4WD indeed the real thing to race. those Ai Yu, Okami, and etc cars were just meant for High Speed Track.
I used to play Tamiya, for me, Tamiya indeed required a lot of understanding towards the realiti of how everything counts in this so called "toys", from weights, aero dynamics, rollers setup and etc.
i have both interest in Tamiya and Caplang Brand(A&Y, Okami) i used to own a lot of Tamiya Cars, but since i dont have the track, so, i end up collecting them. So, now i'm interested to collect these Capland Brand cars for their designs as i used to own Tamiya cars.
So, i wish if anyone could willingly to help me on this. Any shop recommendation will do, if possible, i would like to buy a track, i know Tamiya tracks used to cost RM600 (in 1999) but, now? i rili hv no idea, i hardly find these tracks in Ipoh, ToyCity also have closed their 4wd tracks(heard they send back to KL due to un-popularity in Ipoh)
Hi Jonath,
I used to play A&Y cars before. Those aluminium plates are very light but can be out of shape easily once got bang on something. Unlike nowadays we have FRP plates so much better.
Anyway, I still love to play Tamiya. Especially those old setup, colorful plastic rollers, stablilizing pole with full of plastic rollers, hyper dash motor.
And I am also a Tamiya collector.
Please see the A&Y motor, I think you should seen this motor before.
