The Tamiya Buggy Champ is something that you just want to drive. This may be one of its biggest faults.
Replacement parts are an EBay-only affair, and prices can get pretty high. It's also very difficult to drive because of its aircraft carrier-esque turning circle. This causes a couple of problems:
-I can't drive it on the trails in the woods because it can't corner tight enough between the rocks
-I can't drive it on Tarmac because the only way to corner is to hammer the throttle and brake into a slide, and because of the swing arms giving the rear wheels inconsistent camber it pretty much will roll over
So the only place I have to drive it is under our out of service swingset, which is a 15' x 8' rectangle of loose dirt and fine mulch.

What I plan on doing to balance this out is to keep the BC as a fun, slidy, beach day buggy, and get a scale truck to drive literally everywhere else.
I wanted to do this before, bu I got bi by the SRB bug, so now I decided to start saving up for an RC4WD Trailfinder 2, which is in my opinion the perfect scale truck of today.

Excuse the wall of text, but there's your update on my future plans
