This was the first run of my newly built Tamiya Manta Ray 2018 re-release. I was amazed at how well this old DF-01 chassis design handles and the buggy had loads of punch from the vintage brushed motor I installed. Enjoy the fun run in the sun!
The Manta Ray is stock except for:
* Vintage 21 double turn Fireball brushed motor
* Alloy motor mount
* Ball bearing conversion
* Body painted in Tamiya PS-49 Sky Blue Anodized Aluminum
