Tamiya has released official photos and more detailed information for the TA07MSX. As mentioned before the motor mount is now different, with the motor behind the spur, copying the TA05 and the new wave of mid pulley RC cars.
Also check out the top deck, this brings the motor closer in than many other designs out there. The single belt is also good for stock racing as it does feel more direct when you get on the power than a dual belt platform.
There are lots of other nice details, such as the open stabiliser holders on the bulkhead (Easier to swap), and some interesting screw holes on the bulkheads, maybe the old TA07 top deck would fit? or a horizontal deck?
Overall this new Tamiya TA07MSX looks superb, unlike the electrics install in the photo :) Release date is ETA November.
