went to the tamiya showroom at ubi today while waiting for my girlfriend. Talked to the people over there, they told me tamiya will be re-releasing Grasshopper in 2 week time. Price is $190 for the kit( with stock motor and ESC).

Oh nuts. That means I'm going to be spending money...again.

Once The Frog and Hotshot ever get re-issued, I would have gotten every single RC car that I ever gian for in the 80s. :) :up

should be 540 motor.

i understand it was 380 last time. but i believe tamiya would not have waste money to locate 380 size motor.
