As a bolt out of the blue, Tamiya has announced that it will be racing the TRF419 at this years world championships, and we can get our hands on it soon afterwards.

As is always the case with Tamiya the chassis numbers for all their cars change once the bulkheads change, its also important to see if the width changes, as the new rumoured Tamiya Gear diff may not be compatible with the older cars if its wider..
