Something a little different. In this episode we start the Tamiya Hotshot 2 Blockhead Motors custom build. I feel the collaboration between tamiya and blockhead motors Jun Watanabe’s is definitely a rad one. Amazing box art and definitely a cool looking buggy however the final product I feel is a little underwhelming imo. With a little inspiration from tamiya past, while staying true to Jun watanabe’s blockhead style, I hope to put my twist on things and turn this buggy’s cool factor up a touch. Definitely going to have fun with this one!
Looking forward to chatting with everyone in the comments. Let me know your thoughts.
As always a huge thank you for the support and for watching.

Imagine building a hotshot on a carbon chassis instead of a tub and adding a slipper clutch. Something modern. I would think that would be cool

Agreed. That would definitely be really cool to see. I was telling someone in the 3 video that I was surprised how quickly the weight adds up on this thing. Feels solid but was definitely surprised on the weight

I think the original hotshot 2 is a little boring so i bought the blockhead motors. I think the hotshot 2 would look better with a red body like the hotshot 1

The Blockhead motors kit, imo, is a perfect canvas to do your own thing with and modify. Would love to see how the red turns out. I’ve only seen a few in red. That’s for watching, appreciated 😂
