Been running this chassis for a while now.
Most recently i raced at a new club, I had never been there. Arrived late, had to put motor in etc after skimming it and rushed to make the 2nd qualifier. Despite a lack of grip (everyone was running additive and softer tyres) I still came second out of five on a new track against the regulars.
The car just maintains feeling dialed in and its very easy to set up Strong too! I got hit and the car flew about 6 feet up, landed on its roof, rolled over and kept going. Probably tweaked the chassis, but it was not handling any different after so I may have been lucky.

This TC5 is starting frutrate me a lot and maybe someone out there can help me out. How can this car have a decent run during practice and the first qualifier and then turns crappy in the second, third, and final round? Now for the second, third, and the final round I just change the tires due to the track temp getting hotter. The cars starts hooking around and this is where all the settings are checked such as Tweek, camber, Diff, etc. prior to the run. I see other TCs not making any changes, except for tires, and just checking there settings and are fine for the whole day. So what gives with this car???
Does it hook and loose traction just before you enter the corner or halfway through the corner?
Try - simply run the rear diff a little loose than you would normally prefer see what that does?

Hi all..
I have an issue and am hoping someone can help.
I run 10.5/ashphalt/rubber
The inner front wheel of my TC5 suffers real bad from chatter/judder in on power turns.
I have carefully rebuilt, lubed and replaced the pins in my cv joints but the problem persists.
Any ideas?

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a tc5r with about 5 races on it and a couple of practice days. I went to go set my ride height and noticed that the right side shock springs are compressed way more than the left side. I took the car down to the chassis and it seems to be flat. Any Ideas?

I had the same thing, I found I had my endpoints adjusted too far.
backed them off a click and it went away.
