I just bought a Clod Buster, I think I need a Sand Scorcher now too... The jump at 2:15 covinced me...

This is unique in being the only Tamiya RC promo without the American salesman voiceover.

I've just ordered the 2010 SS rerelease and can't wait to start reliving my childhood (and tearing up the sand dunes of Saudi Arabia!)

I just put my Sand Scorcher out for sale, Seeing this video gives me second thoughts. Old school tamiya's, are build to last !

I love all Tamiya Promo videos. Thank you for posting such a vintage video!

Great video. I remember watching this in the model shop which led to me getting a Rough Rider when I was 13. I still have it. I should dig it out and get it running.

can't wait to get the re-release of this!

[LiveSteamMad]

Yep, the Rough Rider re-release has been confirmed by and advertised by Tamiya. Due out in July. Should be 20,000 Yen (200 USD / 135 GBP) from Hong Kong resellers. I'm loving the idea of a Sand Scorcher re-release. Cheers, Alistair G. (Live_Steam_Mad)

Killer score! Never get tired of watching these clips

what water proof cars at that time!

[31144]

I had a sand scorcher and if I remember the radio gear and the speed controller where housed in a clear polycarb tub that was fully water proofed with a rubber o ring on the lid and Dzus type fastners,remember building one at 5 in the morning one christmas day,think it was late 70's or early 80's,built like bloody tanks and with proper oil filled shocks that you built yourself,oil and everythink,would put most of the modern stuff to shame coz most of the suspension and running gear was aluminium
