New video: taking the Tamiya Sand Scorcher for its first drive

I took the Sand Scorcher for its maiden voyage.  All I will say is I'm glad I took some still photos before I left the house, because it's never going to look that good again...



Taking the completed Tamiya Sand Scorcher for its first drive


All I will say here is the following things may have occurred:


  • It may have been driven under a closed gate - the size of the gap between the ground and the bottom of said gate may have been less than the height of the car.
  • It may have hit a stone wall.
  • It may have hit a stone wall so hard at the front bumper that the licence plate at the back of the vehicle fell off.


One thing I can confirm as a definite: I'm looking into how much replacement body shells cost on ebay...


Video is embedded below, but in case that doesn't work here is the link:

Cheers,

Dave
