In this exhilarating episode by Tomley RC, the spotlight shines on the captivating world of front-wheel drive cars, particularly the Tamilia B1 Peugeot 306 Maxi kit. Known for its versatility, this beast of a machine offers various configurations, from front motor, front-wheel drive to rear-wheel drive setups. The team dives into the nitty-gritty of enhancing the B01 chassis, addressing slop issues with Traxxas shims and upgrading with low friction suspension balls and top-notch Yeah Racing oil shocks. With a nod to RC Kicks and Poor Boys RC for their invaluable insights, the team embarks on a thrilling journey of building and fine-tuning this rally car gem.
As the build progresses, the channel delves into the intricacies of the Castle Copperhead 10 motor, setting the stage for a brushless upgrade to unleash even more power. Amidst the build frenzy during the Easter break, the team savors the pure joy of crafting without the camera's watchful eye.

However, challenges arise with steering play, prompting swift adjustments before hitting the track for some adrenaline-pumping action.
With a roar of the engine and a flick of the steering wheel, the front-wheel drive marvel takes center stage, showcasing its prowess on the tarmac. Despite initial hurdles, the car proves its mettle, clocking an impressive top speed of 50 mph on two cells. The team's dedication to perfecting the car's performance shines through as they fine-tune throttle settings, address aerodynamic influences from the body, and strive for a clean, high-speed run. With each lap around the track, the front-wheel drive beast asserts its dominance, leaving a trail of excitement and anticipation for future speed trials.
